Abstract [en]
The growing popularity of smartphones has been allowing new opportunities towards the development of low-cost and integrated point-of-care diagnostic platforms. Here, we combine (1) the capabilities of smartphones as both imaging devices and power sources; (2) centrifugal microfluidic devices and; (3) our recently reported microdispenser technology allowing reagent storage, dispensing and blood-plasma separation, to pave the way towards cost-effective and portable point-of-care devices with potential to meet the ASSURED criteria outlined by the World Health Organization.
