Abstract

In this work we present a novel, hybrid paper-polymer lab-on-a-disc system which combines both advantages of passive liquid movement in paper and active rotational flow control. The system enables both transport of plasma in the directions parallel or reverse to the centrifugal force and precise plasma dispensing by the spinning frequency. The system functionality has been demonstrated on the detection of triglycerides in plasma by implementing a commercial assay kit. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time of a comprehensively integrated bioassay system in paper-polymer hybrid disc.
