Abstract

This work presents a new concept of a hybrid Point-of-Care (POC) device developed for the detection of cancer biomarkers in blood, circulating DNA, for early cancer diagnostics. The device is composed of both, paper and polymeric based self-powered microfluidic structures and it includes several modules with different functions: sample preparation, signal amplification and detection. This POC device will enable in situ analysis and quick delivery of results, as well as a low cost tool for diagnostics which could impact clinical decision making and personalized medicine.
