研究目的
Investigating a new method for the detection of solution concentration using a paper-based micro?uidic device to decrease the consumption of the sample solution to be detected.
研究成果
A paper-based micro?uidic device can be fabricated using the presented method of hollowing technology. Colored solution concentration can be detected on the paper-based micro?uidic device with a volume of the solution only several micro-liters and a maximal error of only 2%.
研究不足
The volume of the solution using the traditional image-based method is usually several 10 ml, which should be improved. The presented method aims to decrease this volume to several micro-liters.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The method involves designing and fabricating a paper-based micro?uidic device using printed circuit board technology and hollowing technology. The device is used for colorimetric detection of solution concentration.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
Litmus solutions with different concentrations were used as samples. The images of the detective zones were obtained using a microscope with charge-coupled device.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Printed circuit board, copper sheet, solid paraffin, filter paper, microscope with charge-coupled device, litmus solutions.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
The procedure includes designing the pattern, transferring it to a printed circuit board, filling the hollowed zone with paraffin, covering with filter paper, melting the paraffin, pipetting the solution on the device, and capturing images for analysis.
5:Data Analysis Methods
The color parameters in RGBI model were calculated using MATLAB to determine the solution concentration.
