Microfluidic PCR device for diagnostic pathogen detection
Molecular Medicine Unit
In this work a microfluidic cyclic flow PCR device is presented, which is capable of replicating the bacterial genomic DNA sequence of the 16S ribosomal RNA. The standard laboratory processing time of 3 h could be decreased to 60 min with the microfluidic reactor without loosing PCR efficiency. Integrating an optical fluorescence detector for dsDNA measurement would evolve this device into a micro total analysis system.

Multiplexed Diagnostics 2008 Market Report
Published May 2008
Multiplexed diagnostics are the wild west of medicine. Technology is established, regulation is limited and the number of new biomarkers exploding. First-movers are grabbing biomarker territories, combining independent measurements for efficiency and mining molecules for multivariate panels. All the while demand is high for improving diagnoses and predicting responses to treatment. The challenges, however, are uncertain reimbursement, unclear business models and ever-intensifying competition. On
