Abstract
•Desired features of MEMS based POC devices.•MEMS based POC devices for capturing and characterization of single cells.•Detection of nucleic acids with MEMS based POC devices.•Measurement of proteins, small molecules and viscosity.
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have become an invaluable technology to advance the development of point-of-care (POC) devices for diagnostics and sample analyses. MEMS can transform sophisticated methods into compact and cost-effective microdevices that offer numerous advantages at many levels. Such devices include microchannels, microsensors, etc., that have been applied to various miniaturized POC products. Here we discuss some of the recent advances made in the use of MEMS devices for POC applications.
