Opto-fluidic detection system enabling sophisticated point-of-care diagnostics

• IEEE/Photonics Society Winter Topicals 2011

We have demonstrated, prototyped, and benchmarked a compact, low-cost, high-performance microfluidic-based flow cytometer for point-of-care diagnostics. The instrument revealing a detection limit <500 MEPE has been demonstrated with absolute CD4 and CD4% counts in whole blood.
