Lab-on-a-chip devices for global health: past studies and future opportunities.

Curtis D Chin¹, Vincent Linder, Samuel K Sia.

Abstract

A rapidly emerging field in lab-on-a-chip (LOC) research is the development of devices to improve the health of people in developing countries. In this review, we identify diseases that are most in need of new health technologies, discuss special design criteria for LOC devices to be deployed in a variety of resource-poor settings, and review past research into LOC devices for global health. We focus mainly on diagnostics, the nearest-term application in this field.
