4. 2. Capillary driven devices for patient-centric diagnostics

   Author : Gabriel Lenk; Niclas Roxhed; Göran Stemme; Jens Ducrée; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Capillary driven; Microfluidic; Dissolvable valves; PVA; Volume metering; Dried Blood Spots; DBS; Dried Plasma Spots; DPS; Medicinsk teknologi; Medical Technology;

   Abstract : Lateral flow assays is an example of a successful microfluidic platform relying on passive fluid transport, making them suitable for patient-centric and point-of-care applications. Flow control and valving in capillary driven devices typically rely on design-imprinted functions and operations which can be a limiting factor. READ MORE
