Heat, Fluid, and Sample Control in Point-Of-Care Diagnostics Joshua Heat, Fluid, and Sample Control in Point-of-Care Diagnostics Joshua Ronald Buser A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Paul Yager, Chair Barry Lutz Wendy Thomas Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Bioengineering © Copyright 2016 Joshua Ronald Buser University of Washington Abstract Heat, Fluid, and Sample Control in Point-of-Care Diagnostics Joshua Ronald Buser Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Paul Yager Bioengineering Point-of-care diagnostics have transformed healthcare workflow, perhaps most notably in the wide-reaching impact of home pregnancy tests. Lateral flow strips are simple and inexpensive, but limited in their application to relatively simple diagnostic tasks. Nucleic acid amplification assays on the other hand are more accurate and sensitive, but currently restricted to use in well-equipped laboratories due to reliance on external supplies, power, and trained users. The Multiplexable Autonomous Disposables for Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests in Limited Resource Settings (MAD NAAT) Project, led by Paul Yager, uses instrument-free, disposable, paper-based fluidics for multiple pathogen detection with DNA/RNA. The end goal is to create a sample in, answer out isothermal nucleic acid amplification device simple enough for untrained users, with low enough cost to enable wider use of nucleic acid testing. My contributions to this project, combining to form my thesis, include advances in sample preparation for nucleic acid amplification, isothermal chemical temperature control, and fluid transport in paper microfluidics. Progress in these subject areas will help advance the development of nucleic acid tests and other advanced assays compatible with point-of-care usage. 1 Table of Contents 1 Table of

    sensors Review Ten Years of Lateral Flow Immunoassay Technique Applications: Trends, Challenges and Future Perspectives Fabio Di Nardo * , Matteo Chiarello , Simone Cavalera , Claudio Baggiani and Laura Anfossi Department of Chemistry, University of Torino, 10125 Torino, Italy; [email protected] (M.C.); [email protected] (S.C.); [email protected] (C.B.); [email protected] (L.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The Lateral Flow Immunoassay (LFIA) is by far one of the most successful analytical platforms to perform the on-site detection of target substances. LFIA can be considered as a sort of lab-in-a-hand and, together with other point-of-need tests, has represented a paradigm shift from sample-to-lab to lab-to-sample aiming to improve decision making and turnaround time. The features of LFIAs made them a very attractive tool in clinical diagnostic where they can improve patient care by enabling more prompt diagnosis and treatment decisions. The rapidity, simplicity, relative cost-effectiveness, and the possibility to be used by nonskilled personnel contributed to the wide acceptance of LFIAs. As a consequence, from the detection of molecules, organisms, and (bio)markers for clinical purposes, the LFIA application has been rapidly extended to other fields, including food and feed safety, veterinary medicine, environmental control, and many others. This review aims to provide readers with a 10-years overview of applications, outlining the trends for the main application fields and the relative compounded annual growth rates. Moreover, future perspectives and challenges are discussed. Citation: Di Nardo, F.; Chiarello, M.; Cavalera, S.; Baggiani, C.; Anfossi, L.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2013 ABSTRACT This study presents the development of a 3-fluid microfluidic device for the application in immunoassays. The test uses a microfluidic valve in order to sequentially load the reagents autonomously onto the detection area after adding the sample. The development of the multi-fluid circuit allows the application of an enzyme-linked assay in a lateral flow device as to provide with an improved sensitivity compared to strip tests available on the market.

Previously, the applications of QDs as nanosensors for the detection of toxics in biospecimens, especially in cases of poisoning have been discussed. This review focuses on the applications of QDs as bio-sensors for the detection of phytotoxins, vertebrate and invertebrate toxins, and microbial toxins present in biospecimens. Further, the role of QDs in the measurement of biochemical parameters of patient/victim, as an indirect method of poison detection is also highlighted.

Evolution of lateral flow immunoassays Lateral flow immunoassays are a well-established and extremely versatile technology that can be applied to a wide variety of diagnostic applications. Since their inception in the late 1980s a huge range of lateral flow immunoassays have been launched, with the global lateral flow immunoassay market expected to be worth approximately $6 billion by 2020. Lateral flow immunoassays are widely used in hospitals and clinical laboratories, as well as in veterinary medicine, in environmental assessment, and for safety testing during food production. Due to the low development costs and the relative ease of production, this list of applications continues to grow. The technology on which lateral flow immunoassays are based was derived from the work of Singer and Plotz who, in 1956, developed a latex agglutination assay to diagnose rheumatoid arthritis.

Method development has followed a process somewhat akin to Darwinian evolution: methods are selected based upon the characteristics most desirable to the analyst. Typically, this has lead to the development of accurate and sensitive methods for their detection, with a recurring emphasis on improving the speed and lowering the costs of the assays. Like evolution, there have been radical developments, incremental developments, and techniques that have fallen from favor only to be rediscovered.

    Microfluidics and Nanofluidics (2020) 24:17 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10404-020-2321-z REVIEW Challenges and perspectives in the development of paper‑based lateral fow assays Surasak Kasetsirikul1,2 · Muhammad J. A. Shiddiky1,3 · Nam‑Trung Nguyen2 Received: 4 September 2019 / Accepted: 29 January 2020 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2020 Abstract Lateral fow assays (LFAs) have been introduced and developed over the last half century. This technology is widely used as a tool for diagnosis in several felds such as environment, food quality and healthcare. Point-of-care (POC) diagnosis using LFAs has been attracting attention of the research community, particularly aiming for the development of a platform that can evaluate of biological markers in bodily fuids such as saliva and urine. The existence of a disease or the pregnancy can be determined by a test device, before further investigation and medical treatment. LFAs make use of a disposable test strip, which can provide diagnosis result on the spot within minutes. Thus, LFAs is a promising alternative of preliminary diagnosis for laboratory instruments that are costly, time consuming and require trained personnel. This paper includes a brief over- view of the conventional LFAs: material selection based on its roles and characteristics, working principles, fundamentals, applications, and design criteria. We mainly discuss the technical challenges in both engineering and biochemical aspects and recommends possible solutions. We identify current research trends and provide perspectives of advanced technologies for enhancing assay performance.
