Point-of-care testing (POCT) allows physicians to detect and diagnose diseases at or near
the patient site, faster than conventional lab-based testing. The importance of POCT is …

Dipstick and lateral-flow formats have dominated rapid diagnostics over the last three
decades. These formats gained popularity in the consumer markets due to their …

We review point-of-care (POC) diagnostics, in vitro diagnostic (IVD) tests that do not involve
the use of laboratory staff and facilities to provide the result. The analytical “targets” include …

Wearable flexible sensors based on integrated microfluidic networks with multiplex analysis
capability are emerging as a new paradigm to assess human health status and show great …

“Paper-based microfluidics” or “lab on paper,” as a burgeoning research field with its
beginning in 2007, provides a novel system for fluid handling and fluid analysis for a variety …

This paper describes a paper-based microfluidic device that measures two enzymatic
markers of liver function (alkaline phosphatase, ALP, and aspartate aminotransferase, AST) …

We report the first use of redox nanoparticles of cerium oxide as colorimetric probes in
bioanalysis. The method is based on changes in the physicochemical properties of ceria …

Threads, traditionally used in the apparel industry, have recently emerged as a promising
material for the creation of tissue constructs and biomedical implants for organ replacement …

Lateral flow tests (LFTs) are an ingenious format for rapid and easy-to-use diagnostics, but
they are fundamentally limited to assay chemistries that can be reduced to a single chemical …

Thread has become a promising substrate for non-invasive wearable sensor. Herein, we
create a modified cotton thread-based colorimetric sensor for non-invasive and …
