The development of droplet-based microfluidic virus detection technology for human infectious diseases

Abstract

Virus-based human infectious diseases have a significant negative impact on people's health and social development. The need for quick, accurate, and early viral infection detection in preventive medicine is expanding. A microfluidic control is particularly suitable for point-of-care-testing virus diagnosis due to its advantages of low sample consumption, quick detection speed, simple operation, multi-functional integration, small size, and easy portability. It is also thought to have significant development potential and a wide range of application prospects in the research on virus detection technology. In an effort to aid researchers in creating novel microfluidic tools for virus detection, this review highlights recent developments of droplet-based microfluidics in virus detection research and also discusses the challenges and opportunities for rapid virus detection.
