Mixing during Trapping Enabled a Continuous-Flow Microfluidic Smartphone Immunoassay Using Acoustic Streaming

Xian Chen et al.

Summary: A novel acoustic streaming tweezers-enabled microfluidic immunoassay was proposed, allowing for probe particles' purification, reaction, and sensing on the same chip under continuous-flow conditions. The high-speed microscale vortexes enable dynamic trapping and washing of the probe particles and enhance the capture efficiency of heterogeneous particle-based immunoassay through active mixing during trapping. This system achieved a limit of detection of 0.2 ng/mL and a dynamic response range from 0.3 to 10 ng/mL for prostate-specific antigen sensing with only 10 μL of sample in less than 15 minutes total assay time, making it suitable for on-site diagnosis applications.

One-step-immunoassay of procalcitonin enables rapid and accurate diagnosis of bacterial infection

Jae-Hwan Oh et al.

Summary: This study aims to develop an advanced one-step immunoassay for quick and accurate diagnosis of sepsis by measuring PCT concentration in patient sera. By attaching multiple anti-PCT antibodies (IgGs) to a modified hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid surface to construct a 3D probe, hook effect-free and PCT concentration-dependent optical signals were successfully generated.
