Freshwater Environments

We demonstrate how a combination of paper microfluidic devices and handheld mobile technology can be used by citizen scientists to carry out a sustained water monitoring campaign. We have developed a paper-based analysis device and a 3 minute sampling workflow that requires no more than a container, a test device and a smartphone app. The contaminant measured in these pilots are phosphates, detectable down to 3 mg L<sup>-1</sup>. Together these allow volunteers to successfully carry out cost-effective, high frequency, phosphate monitoring over an extended geographies and periods.

Flow Through

<p>Paper-based microfluidic devices are popular for their ability to automate multi-step assays for chemical or biological sensing at a low cost, but the design of paper microfluidic networks has largely relied on experimental trial and error. A few mathematical models of flow through paper microfluidic devices have been developed and have succeeded in explaining experimental flow behaviour. However, the reverse engineering problem of designing complex paper networks guided by appropriate mathematical models is largely unsolved. In this article, we demonstrate that a two-dimensional paper network (2DPN) designed to sequentially deliver three fluids to a test zone on the device can be computationally designed and experimentally implemented without trial and error. This was accomplished by three new developments in modelling flow through paper networks: i) coupling of the Richards equation of flow through porous media to the species transport equation, ii) modelling flow through assemblies of multiple paper materials (test membrane and wicking pad), and iii) incorporating limited-volume fluid sources. We demonstrate the application of this model in the optimal design of a paper-based signal-enhanced immunoassay for a malaria protein, P<i>f</i>HRP2. This work lays the foundation for the development of a computational design toolbox to aid in the design of paper microfluidic networks.</p>
