Summary:This paper presents: (i) a hand held system consisting of a portable platform and disposable polymeric Lab-on-a-card capable of performing a nucleic acid concentration, amplification and detection with reagents inside; and a (ii) wearable diagnostic Lab-on-a-Paper skinpatch system, capable of performing in-situ sweat sampling, analyte pre-concentration, and immunoassay analysis. The skinpatch works in conjunction with a hand-held optoelectronic reader / micro PC fluorescence analysis interface.
