  • Descrição: Microfluidics found its place in point of care diagnostics. Microfluidic devices on paper substrate are proposed on both channel-based and digital microfluidics (DMF). But fluid flow controlling on microfluidics paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) and post-processing on DMF devices have limitations. In this work a new hybrid paper-based device is proposed with the aim of resolving these limitations and expanding the microfluidics capabilities in point of care diagnostics. The hybrid paper-based microfluidics (HPMF) device is composed of a DMF device following a µPAD in a single substrate, in which the DMF part performs the preprocessing steps of the test on droplets and transfers the resulting droplet to the µPAD part of the device for post-processing steps. The fabrication process of the device is rapid and very low cost due to use of paper substrate and out of clean-room processes. The results show that the proposed HPMF device can perform droplet operations: moving, mixing, and splitting.
