Moisture absorption rates via capillary suction within packed beds – The effect of material and fluid properties with implications for heap leaching operations

Paper-based chemometer device for the estimation of α-amylase—a biomarker for pancreatitis

“…3,4 The principle behind these devices is based on the capillary action of uids, 5 where uids move in the paper channel due to the attraction between the uid and paper bres. [6][7][8] The distance travelled by the uid is proportional to the analyte concentration in the sample, allowing for quantitative analysis. 9,10 The simplicity and accessibility of these devices make them ideal for use in resourcelimited settings where traditional laboratory equipment and methods may not be feasible.…”
