    Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to a point-of-care (POC) microfluidic biochip for rapid, highly sensitive and specific pertussis diagnosis. The POC biochip can be used in various venues such as physician's office, schools, hospitals, and low-resource settings so that rapid prevention and treatment of pertussis can be achieved. The POC biochip based pertussis diagnosis is low-cost and does not rely on any specialized instrument, but offers comparable sensitivity to real-time PCR.
