More Information
Summary:The present disclosure provides a digital microfluidic (DMF) cartridge for performing a self-test for a target analyte, including a DMF cartridge comprising a bottom substrate and a top substrate separated by a droplet operations gap, wherein the bottom substrate comprises a plurality of droplet operations electrodes configured for performing droplet operations on a liquid droplet in the droplet operations gap; one or more reaction chambers or reaction zones on the bottom substrate that are supplied by an arrangement of the droplet operations electrodes, wherein each reaction chamber or reaction zone comprises at least one detection spot and is configured for performing a plasmonic particle-assisted ELISA (pELISA) for detection and quantification of a target analyte in a sample droplet. The device may include downloadable software for a self-test and be operable using a smart device.
