“…Polymeric materials of different grades and types are easily available, and the fabrication techniques have saved time and cost compared to glass and silicon-based devices (Song et al 2004). For example, devices produced from poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) have good properties and the production cost is low especially using commercial grade PMMA (Kaleibar et al 2010). The cyclic olefin copolymer (Zhou and Papautsky 2007) is highly suitable for the fabrication of microfluidic devices using hot embossing (Yeo et al 2010;Zhong et al 2011b) techniques.…”

Paper-based microfluidic devices hold great potential in today's microfluidic applications. They offer low costs, simple and quick fabrication processes, ease of uses, etc. In this work, several wax and paper materials are investigated for the fabrication of paper-based microfluidic devices. A novel method of using wax as a suitable backing to a paper-based analytical device has been demonstrated. Governing equations for the mechanics of the fluid flow in paper-based channels with constant widths have been experimentally validated. Experimental results showing deviations from the governing equations have been verified using fluidic channels with varying widths. There lies the possibility of manipulation of the fluid flow in paper-based microfluidic devices solely using geometric factors. This opens up many potential applications that may require sequential delivery of reagents or samples. Lastly, properties of paper such as the average pore diameter and permeability can be deduced from experimental results.

Immunosensors are prospective tools to transform analytical methods by providing a highly specific, rapid, and inexpensive detection for use in various fields of monitoring. In this chapter, screen printing technology is used to combine different strategies with recognition molecules modified on screen-printed based electrodes for immunocomplex detection. To develop innovative immunosensors, modification of the antibody or the electrode surface by nanomaterials is often used, and these strategies are discussed. These emerging hybrid technologies have led to miniaturisation and to a greater utilisation of immunosensors available for current applications, such as point-of-care diagnostics.
