This project will enhance Australia's capabilities and presence in the rapidly expanding field of chemical and biological analysis systems on a chip. We will develop and build handheld devices for microbial concentration that will facilitate earlier and easier detection of potentially pathogenic organisms in critical situations such as epidemiological crises or forensics. The portability and ease of operation of our integrated microfluidic devices and their increased resilience to blockages make them ideal for use in remote areas and non-laboratory settings. Application areas will include disease detection, microbial contamination in food industries and water quality monitoring.

该项目将增强澳大利亚在迅速扩大的单芯片化学和生物分析系统领域的能力和存在。我们将开发和制造用于微生物浓缩的手持设备，以便在流行病危机或取证等关键情况下更早和更容易地检测到潜在的病原体。我们集成的微流控设备的便携性和易操作性，以及它们对堵塞的更强的弹性，使其成为偏远地区和非实验室环境下使用的理想选择。应用领域将包括疾病检测、食品行业的微生物污染和水质监测。
