A centrifugal microfluidic platform for point-of-care diagnostic applications

Author: Hugo, S ; Land, K ; Madou, M ; Kido, H Date: Feb 2014 Microfluidic systems enable precise control over tiny volumes of fluid in a compact and low-cost form, thus providing the ideal platform on which to develop point-of-care diagnostic solutions. Centrifugal microfluidic systems, also referred ... Read more
Development of paper-based wireless communication modules for point-of-care diagnostic applications

Author: Smith, Suzanne ; Bezuidenhout, Petroné ; Land, Kevin ; Korvink, JG ; Mager, D Date: Sep 2016 We present an ultra-high frequency radio frequency identification based wireless communication set-up for paper-based point-of-care diagnostic applications, based on a sensing radio frequency identification chip. Paper provides a low-cost, ... Read more
New microfluidic platform for life sciences in South Africa

Author: Hugo, S ; Land, K Date: Oct 2012 Microfluidic systems provide the ideal platform on which to develop point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices. A new microfluidic platform, based on centrifugal microfluidic principles, is currently being developed at the CSIR, with the aim ... Read more
Optical biosensing of mycobacterium tuberculosis for point-of-care diagnosis

Author: Maphanga, Charles P ; Manoto, Sello L ; Ombinda-Lemboumba, Saturnin ; Hlekelele, Lerato ; Mthunzi-Kufa, Patience Date: Feb 2020 An optical biosensor is a compact analytical device formed by a bio-recognition sensing element integrated to an optical transducer system which translates a signal into a readable outcome that is measured by the detector. The target analyte ... Read more
Paper-based smart microfluidics for education and low-cost diagnostics

Author: Smith, S ; Moodley, K ; Govender, Ureshnie ; Chen, H ; Fourie, L ; Ngwenya, S ; Kumar, S ; Mjwana, P ; Cele, H ; Mbanjwa, MB ; Potgieter, S ; Joubert, T-H ; Land, K Date: Nov 2015 Current centralised healthcare models pose many challenges, particularly for developing countries such as South Africa, where travel and time costs make it difficult for patients to seek healthcare, even when urgently needed. To address this ... Read more
Point of care diagnostics for HIV in resource limited settings: an overview

Author: Manoto, Sello L ; Lugongolo, Masixole Y ; Govender, Ureshnie ; Mthunzi-Kufa, Patience Date: Mar 2018 Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a global health problem. Early diagnosis, rapid antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation and monitoring of viral load are the key strategies for effective HIV management. Many people in resource limited ... Read more
