Research Progress of Paper-Based Microfluidic Devices

Paper-based microfluidic devices have recently received increasing attention as a potential platform for its low cost, portability and excellent compatibility with biological samples. A variety of fabrication technologies were employed, including simple photolithography, wax plotting, printing, inkjet etching, plasma etching and so on. Meanwhile, the potential applications of paper-based microfluidic devices in diagnostic, point-of-care (POC), and environmental monitoring were reported. We review the recent progress of fabrication technologies and the applications of paper-based microfluidic devices.
