    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of detecting a target microparticle in a fluid in a microfluidic particle analysis device comprising a measuring channel with a first electrode and a second electrode defining an operating space between and being in electrical connection with an electric current source and a device for monitoring an electrical signal from the first and/or the second electrode. A sample fluid suspected of containing a target microparticle exposing an identification binding partner is mixed with a recognition binding partner component to provide a complex of the recognition binding partner and the identification binding partner, and the complex is labelled with electrically conducting nanoparticles; before optionally adjusting the conductivity to be in the range of 5,000 μS/cm to 50,000 μS/cm and applying a flow of the suspension to the measuring channel of the microfluidic particle analysis device; before applying a current to create an electric field in the operating space and monitoring an electrical signal between the first and the second electrode to detect target microparticles labelled with the electrically conducting nanoparticles. The method is suited to detect a pathogenic bacterium in a water or another fluid.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a blood diagnostic device, which includes one or more blood input parts into which blood is injected, a deterministic lateral displacement separation part which communicates with the blood input part to form a blood flow path along which the blood flows and separates white blood cells from remaining blood components, a first microchannel which communicates with the deterministic lateral displacement separation part so that the white blood cells separated through the deterministic lateral displacement separation part flow therein, one or more second microchannels which communicate with the deterministic lateral displacement separation part so that the remaining blood components separated through the deterministic lateral displacement separation part flow therein, a first discharge part which communicates with the first microchannel so that the white blood cells flowing in the first microchannel are discharged therethrough, and a second discharge part which communicates with the second microchannel.

    摘要: A particle separating and measuring device includes a first flow path device having a post-separation flow outlet to allow discharge of a first fluid containing target particles to be separated, and a second flow path device receiving the first flow path device and having a first flow inlet to receive the first fluid. The first flow path device having a lower surface having the post-separation flow outlet is on the second flow path device having an upper surface having the first flow inlet in a first region, with the post-separation flow outlet facing and connecting to the first flow inlet. A connection flow path vertically extends from an opening of the first flow inlet to a first flow path, and narrows from the opening of the first flow inlet toward the first flow path.
