"All-inkjet-printed microfluidic paper-based analytical devices"
Daniel Citterio, Kento Maejima, Bernat Guirao Expósito and Koji Suzuki

What is the golden nugget of your presentation?
My presentation focuses on the fabrication of microfluidic paper-based analytical devices, so-called "microPADs", which are currently drawing attention as low-cost devices suitable for diagnostics or environmental analysis in low-resource settings. Only inkjet printing offers the advantage of being applicable for the creation of the microfluidic pattern and the deposition of all the reagents required for (bio)chemical sensing. I will show how entire microPADs can be printed on a single off-the-shelf inkjet printer.
