纳米/微流体技术正在成为发达国家和发展中国家诊断和监测传染病的有力工具。精确操纵小流体体积的小型化纳米/微流体平台可以用于以更快速和准确的方式实现医学诊断。特别地，这些纳米/微流体诊断技术潜在地适用于全球健康应用，因为它们是一次性的、便宜的、便携的并且易于用于检测传染病。在本文中，我们回顾了在发展中国家资源有限的环境中，纳米/微流体技术在临床护理点应用方面的最新进展。
Nano/microfluidic technologies are emerging as powerful enabling tools for diagnosis and monitoring of infectious diseases in both developed and developing countries. Miniaturized nano/microfluidic platforms that precisely manipulate small fluid volumes can be used to enable medical diagnosis in a more rapid and accurate manner. In particular, these nano/microfluidic diagnostic technologies are potentially applicable to global health applications, because they are disposable, inexpensive, portable, and easy-to-use for detection of infectious diseases. In this paper, we review recent developments in nano/microfluidic technologies for clinical point-of-care applications at resource-limited settings in developing countries.
