Electrochemical detection of glucose from whole blood using paper-based microfluidic devices

- A novel platform of paper-based microfluidic devices for glucose assay from whole blood sample was established that incorporates plasma isolation methods.
- Dumbbell shaped μPADs was fabricated to obtain the uniform plasma separation and reproducible electrochemical signals.
- Two pieces of VF2 membranes combined with Whatman No. 1 paper using wax-dipping fabrication method to form a dumbbell shaped μPAD.
- Conventional Prussian blue-modified screen printed electrode (PB-SPEs) was placed underneath the middle part of a dumbbell shaped μPAD.
