Automated microfluidic cartridges for point-of-care cell counting.

Total white blood cell count (WBC) and red blood cell count (RBC) tests were implemented using low-cost, disposable and mass producible microfluidic cartridges with automated sample introduction and processing steps for visual microscopy cell counting to be performed. Results across 10 WBC and 10 RBC cartridges compared well with gold standard FBC results and were within acceptable error ranges.enMicrofluidic cartridgesPoint-of-care diagnosticsCell countingConference PresentationSmith, S., Madzivhandila, P., Sewart, R., Govender, U., Becker, H., Land, K., & Roux, P.
