This review reports on recent advances in state-of-the-art detection methods for microfluidic
paper-based analytical devices (μPADs). The review commences by describing the …

Paper-based microfluidic devices have advanced significantly in recent years as they are
affordable, automated with capillary action, portable, and biodegradable diagnostic …

Recently, actuating materials based on carbon nanotubes or graphene have been widely
studied. However, present carbon‐based actuating materials are mostly driven by a single …

Over the last 10 years, researchers have shown that paper is a promising substrate for
affordable biosensors. The field of paper-microfluidics has evolved rapidly in that time, with …

In this decade, paper-based microfluidics has gained more interest in the research due to

Composite nanocoating of cationic polyacrylamide and aqueous dispersion of hydroxyl-
functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with pre-adsorbed alkali lignin on lignocellulose …

Traditional microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) use capillary action to
transport fluids through a single layer of paper. While μPADs have many advantages, flow …

Double-sided electrohydrodynamic jet printing of circuitry using silver nanowires (AgNWs)
and dispensing of high viscosity silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is demonstrated for the first …

This article reviews environmentally friendly and/or cost-effective processes. Topics covered
are minimum-quantity-lubrication (MQL), cryogenic-cooling and near-dry-machining; …

In paper-based microfluidics, the development of a robust and multi-role valve mechanism is
important for flow control to perform multistep biochemical assays. The previous valve …
