“…Martusevich et al agreed with this concept, suggesting that the pattern left behind from a blood drop is dependent on a person's health. They noted that characteristics of the blood patterns from a healthy person differed from those with a blood disease, for example, both hepatitis B and C. Differences between the blood serum patterns of healthy individuals, and those of patients with gastrointestinal and cardiovascular diseases have been observed in other studies . Brutin et al showed that samples from various patients – healthy, anaemic and hyperlipidemic—resulted in distinguishable patterns.…”

The complex patterns observed from evaporated liquid drops have been examined extensively over the last 20 years. Complete understanding of drop deposition is vital in many medical processes, and one which is essential to the translation of biofluid spectroscopic disease diagnostics. The promising use of spectroscopy in disease diagnosis has been hindered by the complicated patterns left by dried biological fluids which may inhibit the clinical translation of this technology. Coffee-ring formation, cracking and gelation patterns have all been observed in biofluid drops, and with surface homogeneity being a key element to many spectroscopic techniques, experimental issues have been found to arise. A better understanding of the fundamental processes involved in a drying droplet could allow efficient progression in this research field, and ultimately benefit the population with the development of a reliable cancer diagnostic.

“…Analysis of the drying of biological fluids has shown that variations in solute type, and concentration, can create distinct deposition patterns with promising implications for rapid disease screening and diagnostics . Positive responses to treatments were also identifiable in the patterns formed from dried blood serum of patients with gastrointestinal disease . Functionalized gold nanoparticles have been shown to produce self-assembled crystalline lattice structures with enhanced light absorption in thin layers suitable for high-efficiency solar cells and other such structures with potential useful applications.…”

Surfactant Control of Coffee Ring Formation in Carbon Nanotube Suspensions

et al. 2023

The coffee ring effect regularly occurs during the evaporation of colloidal droplets and is often undesirable. Here we show that adding a specific concentration of a surfactant can mitigate this effect. We have conducted experiments on aqueous suspensions of carbon nanotubes that were prepared with cationic surfactant dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide added at 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10 times the critical micelle concentration. Colloidal droplets were deposited on candidate substrates for printed electronics with varying wetting characteristics: glass, polyethylene terephthalate, fluoroethylene propylene copolymer, and polydimethylsiloxane. Following drying, four pattern types were observed in the final deposits: dot-like, uniform, coffee ring deposits, and combined patterns (coffee ring with a dot-like central deposit). Evaporation occurred predominantly in constant contact radius mode for most pattern types, except for some cases that led to uniform deposits in which early stage receding of the contact line occurred. Image analysis and profilometry yielded deposit thicknesses, allowing us to identify a coffee ring subfeature in all uniform deposits and to infer the percentage coverage in all cases. Importantly, a critical surfactant concentration was identified for the generation of highly uniform deposits across all substrates. This concentration resulted in visually uniform deposits consisting of a coffee ring subfeature with a densely packed center, generated from two distinct evaporative phases.
