Smartphone biosensor for Salmonella and Amitriptyline

The proposed application has been developed to detect CRP, salmonella, and amitriptyline (AMT) on the basis of a structured lateral flow chip. It is combined with a read-out system using the camera of a smartphone and software such as ImageJ or a specially programmed app to evaluate color depth proportional to concentration. These strips are structured for multi-channel applications for either multi-analyte or for replica measurements. Calibration curves are provided for analytes, structuring and read-out will be discussed. The results allow the application in the area of POCT (point-of-care diagnostics), Anywhere care, or citizen science.
