Abstract :
We report flow rate-enhanced new paper-based microfluidic (μPAD) platform via a modified hollow channel. The hollow channel was made by a hand-coating film instead of a paper. In two character-shaped microfluidic channels including T and Y, the hollow platform showed roughly maximum 300-fold fast flow rates and times compared to the hydrophilic platform.
