Disposable lateral flow-through strip for smartphone-camera to quantitatively detect alkaline phosphatase activity in milk

Lanthanide light for biology and medical diagnosis

“…Regarding the latter, lateral-flow paper biosensors represent an appealing and often cheap platform for detection of human and veterinary disease pathogens, as well as for food quality control [69,70]. Numerous patents have been filed describing all aspects of these analyses, the principle of which is illustrated in Figure 7 (top) and which may be designed for multiple testing.…”

Point-of-care diagnostics for niche applications

“…The cost of the technologies included in portable tests is going down fast. Tests that use glucose meters (Gu et al, 2015) or cell phones (Yu et al, 2015; Ludwig et al, 2015) to analyze milk samples are in the research phase. Fabrication technologies, including cloned reagents, especially synthetic antibodies, ink jet printing of biologics and optoelectronic circuits, organic optics, and roll-to-roll fabrication and assembly of devices will bring the cost down and enable the production of more robust and disposable tests.…”

Biosensors and bioelectronics on smartphone for portable biochemical detection

“…It can greatly improve the automation of ELISA detection. Moreover, utilizing the sample flowing devices, multiplexed monitoring for immune assays can also be developed by lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based on smartphone (Lee et al, 2013;Yetisen et al, 2014;Yu et al, 2015;Zangheri et al, 2015). Besides immune assays, smartphone has also been used to capture chemiluminescence linked to redox reactions (Oncescu et al, 2013;Chun et al, 2014;Oncescu et al, 2014;Bueno et al, 2015).…”
