  • MICROFLUIDIC DEVICES AND METHODS FOR PATHOGEN DETECTION IN LIQUID SAMPLES
    Publication number: 20180143192
    Abstract: One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a device for detecting a pathogen biomarker in a biological sample. The device can comprise a substrate. The substrate can comprise paper. The device can also comprise a hydrophobic material applied to the substrate to define at least one target region, a sample region, and at least one channel in fluid communication with the at least one target region and the sample region. The device can further include a predetermined amount of antibodies that specifically bind to at least one pathogen biomarker provided in the at least one target region. The predetermined amount of antibodies is conjugated with colloidal gold.
    Type: Application
