TL;DR: The work presents the first reported Lab-on-Chip platform that comprises an acoustic device as the sensing element, exhibiting impressive analytical features, namely, an acoustic limit of detection of 2 cells/μl or 3 aM of the DNA target and ability to detect in a label-free manner dsDNA amplicons in impure samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
A passive micromixer for enzymatic digestion of DNA

TL;DR: In this article, a passive micromixer with zigzag geometry is demonstrated to perform simultaneously mixing of a restriction enzyme with DNA and digestion of DNA, and the total length required for complete mixing is estimated by simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Methods for Antimicrobial Resistance Diagnostics.
TL;DR: In this article, a review describes the developments in current cutting-edge methods and technologies, organized by key enabling research domains, towards fighting the looming antimicrobial resistance (AMR) menace by employing recent advances in AMR diagnostic tools.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lab-on-Chip platform and protocol for rapid foodborne pathogen detection comprising on-chip cell capture, lysis, DNA amplification and surface-acoustic-wave detection
Katerina Tsougeni,Georgia D. Kaprou,C.M. Loukas,George Papadakis,Audrey Hamiot,Michael J. Eck,David Rabus,George Kokkoris,Stavros Chatzandroulis,V. Papadopoulos,Bruno Dupuy,Gerhard Jobst,Electra Gizeli,Angeliki Tserepi,Evangelos Gogolides +14 more
TL;DR: Lab on a chip platform and protocol for rapid pathogen analysis in food samples based on an oxygen plasma nanotextured polymeric chip combining in one microfluidic chamber bacteria immunoaffinity capturing on the chip surface, chemical lysis and DNA isothermal amplification, followed by label-free detection with a Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) biosensor.
Journal ArticleDOI
3D-printed Point-of-Care Platform for Genetic Testing of Infectious Diseases Directly in Human Samples Using Acoustic Sensors and a Smartphone.

TL;DR: The acoustic detection method is shown to give similar results with a standard colorimetric assay carried out in saliva and nasal swab but can also be used to detect nucleic acids inside whole blood, where a colorIMetric assay failed to perform.
