Pump-Free Microfluidic Rapid Mixer Combined with a Paper-Based Channel
(2020-07-24)
Capillary forces are commonly employed to transport fluids in pump-free microfluidic platforms such as paper-based microfluidics. However, since paper is a porous material consisting of nonuniform cellulose fibers, it has ...
A temperature-based diagnostic approach for paper-based microfluidics
(Springer Heidelberg, 2018-03)
We present the potential of a quantitative temperature-based diagnostic approach for paper-based microfluidics, extending the work of Terzis et al. (J Colloid Interface Sci 504:751–757, 2017) which demonstrated a significant ...
Simultaneous determination of renal function biomarkers in urine using a validated paper-based microfluidic analytical device
(2018-01-02)
In this paper, we describe a validated paper-based microfluidic analytical device for the simultaneous quantification of two important biomarkers of renal function in urine. This paper platform provides an inexpensive, ...
Assessing the rapid flow in multilayer paper-based microfluidic devices
(Springer Heidelberg, 2019-07)
A hot topic in paper-based microfluidics is the achievement of capillary-driven flows much faster than the ones theoretically allowed by the hydrodynamic permeability of common filter papers. Recent works have experimentally ...
Rational design of capillary-driven flows for paper-based microfluidics
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-03)
The design of paper-based assays that integrate passive pumping requires a precise programming of the fluid transport, which has to be encoded in the geometrical shape of the substrate. This requirement becomes critical ...
Configurable 2D nano-flows in mesoporous films using paper patches
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018-02)
Designing and controlling spontaneous imbibition is becoming a key requirement for advanced devices, presenting a substantial scientific and engineering challenge. Here we describe an approach that allows directional ...
Precise capillary flow for paper-based viscometry
(Springer, 2016-10)
The imbibition dynamics of aqueous solutions in paper substrates determines the performance of all the operations integrated in analytical paper-based devices. In particular, an accurate control of the flow rate is required ...
USB powered microfluidic paper-based analytical devices
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2019-11)
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) allow user-friendly and portable chemical determinations, although they provide limited applicability due to insufficient sensitivity. Several approaches have been proposed ...
