Abstract :
We have developed a novel bioflexible electronic device, called “Bioflexible ITP Chip” that integrates Isotachophoresis for biochemical analysis of blood on flexible and conformable circuitry and packaging. The device demonstrates scalable integration and fabrication technologies that are borrowed from the packaging and PCB industry and applied to wearable medical applications. This work demonstrates the possibility of producing flexible and integrated worn-on-the-body microfluidic devices for advanced health monitoring and wound care applications such as a smart bandage. In this paper we describe the fabrication process and the characterization of the biochemical and electronic functions integrated in the bioflexible ITP chip.
