چکیده
Immunoassays have greatly benefited from miniaturization in microfluidic systems. This review, which summarizes developments in microfluidics-based immunoassays since 2000, includes four sections, focusing on the configurations of immunoassays that have been implemented in microfluidics, the main fluid handling modalities that have been used for microfluidic immunoassays, multiplexed immunoassays in microfluidic platforms, and the emergence of label-free detection techniques. The field of microfluidic immunoassays is continuously improving and has great promise for the future.

PDMS microfluidic capillary systems for patterning proteins on surfaces and performing miniaturized immunoassays.
In this chapter, we describe the fabrication and use of microfluidic capillary systems (CSs) made in soft, transparent polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Sixteen microfluidic CSs, each containing a loading pad, a microchannel, and a capillary pump are engraved in a single PDMS chip. The CSs are used for two applications, firstly to pattern fibronectin on glass surfaces to locally control the adhesion...

متن کاملCombining Electrowetting and Magnetic Bead Manipulations for Use in Microfluidic Immunoassays
This experiment investigated reducing the cost of microfluidic immunoassays. Magnetic microbeads are used in these assays to increase the efficiency of immunoassays, but they also raise the cost. This experiment aims to reduce the number of magnetic beads necessary by using electrowetting in conjunction with the beads. Single and parallel plate electrowetting devices were tested individually an...

We introduce an automated digital microfluidic (DMF) platform capable of performing immunoassays from sample to analysis with minimal manual intervention. This platform features (a) a 90 Pogo pin interface for digital microfluidic control, (b) an integrated (and motorized) photomultiplier tube for chemiluminescent detection, and (c) a magnetic lens assembly which focuses magnetic fields into a ...
متن کاملRapid, automated, parallel quantitative immunoassays using highly integrated microfluidics and AlphaLISA
Immunoassays represent one of the most popular analytical methods for detection and quantification of biomolecules. However, conventional immunoassays such as ELISA and flow cytometry, even though providing high sensitivity and specificity and multiplexing capability, can be labor-intensive and prone to human error, making them unsuitable for standardized clinical diagnoses. Using a commerciali...
