fabricated by more costly advanced and sophisti­cated fabrication processes.
From the above-described studies, it is evident that Lab-on-PCB may be considered a promising platform for biosensing applications. It is thus logical that more effort has been focused recently on further optimisation of a PCB industry­compatible integration of the different device components. Franco etal. [36] developed a PCB compatible technique for bonding the PCB sub­strate to a polymeric solid material for microu­idic integration. Particularly, they used PMMA but this can be easily extended to PC, polyethyl­ene terephthalate (PET) and cyclic olen copoly­mer (COC). Instead of using a glue or/and adhesive tape for the bonding, they developed a thermal method as they argued that this technique was more pragmatically oriented towards mass production. A copper microheater provided the energy to temporarily melt the plastic and the bonding was completed after it solidied again. They further applied this technique on fabricat­ing the rst reported normally open PCB-based microvalve [37]. This was done by incorporating an additional copper microheater, placed under the channel. The generated heat melted the PMMA which in return blocked the channel.
7.2.4 Advanced Quantication
Diagnostic Device Examples
7.2.4.1 PCR Modules
Adding to the proven benets of PCB implemen­tation and the experience/knowledge regarding successful manufacturing methods, there has progress in the development of self-sufcient PCB-based diagnostic devices incorporating the previously described individual modules (e.g. mixers, pumps, etc.) with increasingly reported benchmarks matching standard, non-PCB devices or traditional benchtop methods. At Stanford University, Marshall et al. [38] inte­grated mixing, thermal lysis of whole blood and nucleic acid isotachophoresis extraction­purication on a single PCB chip with microu­idic structure made from polyurethane. Their results were comparable to those obtained using
standard off-chip lysis and a glass capillary for ITP [39]. The validation of their on-chip lysis and extraction was performed with off-chip quantita­tive polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Given the powerful relevance of amplifying specic regions of DNA by PCR for biosensor applica­tions, miniaturisation of the underlying technol­ogy has been explored. The integration of micro PCR (μPCR) in a PCB-based device that is also capable of sample preparation and subsequent DNA detection was rst reported in 2004 by Liu etal. [40]. The device consisted of three modules (Fig.7.4b): (i) the plastic chip which included a mixing unit for cell capture using immunomag­netic separation, (ii) a cell pre-concentration/ purication/lysis/PCR unit and (iii) a DNA microarray chamber; comprising a PCB with Peltier heaters and control circuitry and a second PCB chip with 4×4 gold electrodes, where the target DNA hybridisation took place (Motorola eSensor). The plastic chip was micromachined in PC and was sealed by another (500μm thick) PC cover via solvent assistant thermal bonding. The valves were made by melting and re-solidifying parafn while the three boards were attached together by means of double-sided adhesive tape.
On a similar quest, Moschou et al. [41, 42] presented a more PCB industry compatible μPCR device, whereby the uidic compartments were made by laminating polyimide lms (Dupont PC1015) on the PCB board and the micro-heaters were made on the copper layer (Fig.7.4b). The μPCR module fed a label-free, silicon-based, capacitive DNA-sensor for mutations of the KRAS gene, of diagnostic signicance for colon cancer. Compared to earlier studies this device was simpler, requiring an external instrument for uid pumping and temperature control of the integrated micro-heaters for the μPCR steps. Subsequent development focused on deriving an efcient array of micro-heaters with a combined temperature sensing/heating feature, employing also simulations to ensure uniform temperature across each PCR zone (denaturation, extension, annealing) with no thermal cross-talk between the zones while achieving comparable DNA amplication results to commercial bench-top thermocycler in a shorter time [43].

ous ow μPCR device was further improved by the same group in terms of amplication speed and power consumption, providing a means for developing portable, battery-operated μPCR [44,
45]. The achievement of robust sealing (with-
standing 12 bars), retaining complete PCB manu­facturing processes compatibility, enabled the group to increase the channel length and the ow

velocity (15 mL/min) further, consequently decreasing the amplication time to only2min, rendering it one of the fastest PCR devices in the literature regardless of the material [45].
Although the concept of creating the microu­idic channels in the PCB was ideal for continuous ow μPCR applications, due to the low thermal conductivity of the material (required for consistent xed temperatures at the three indi­vidual μPCR areas), an alternative approach for static μPCR has involved microuidics in a sepa­rate PMMA formation on the PCB chip [46, 47] introducing interesting solutions (ranging from added copper layer to active fan cooling) to miti­gate the higher thermal mass and the need for low thermal inertia (static PCR requires thermal cycling). Indeed, this highlights the signicant growing interest in the Lab-on-PCB approach.
Tseng et al. [48] followed a different approach for microuidic integration of a qPCR device on PCB. After constructing a three­electrode electrochemical sensor with copper tracks as heating elements, they adhesively bonded a commercially supplied sterilised chamber on top of the board to hold the uid for the qPCR.In addition, the droplet-based micro­uidics on PCB could be highly suitable for DNA amplication as the copper electrodes used for electrowetting could be simultaneously used as heaters for the amplication process. This idea was recently applied to human papil­lomavirus (HPV) diagnosis [49].
7.2.4.2 Advanced Bio-Sensing Devices
Advancing PCB devices that specically focus on biological sensing (as shown in Table7.1), a carbon nanotube-based PCB electrode array demonstrated a state-of-the-art sensing perfor­mance, achieving simultaneous amperometric detection of lactate and glucose [50], just one of several increasingly sophisticated carbon-based sensors made possible by adopting the latest manufacturing technologies (Fig. 7.5a). Inkjet­printing was employed to deposit graphene on the working electrode of a exible PCB electro­chemical sensor for wearable bio-electronics designed for continuous glucose sensing [51]. Gold nanoparticles have been electro-deposited
on graphene to enhance the sensitivity, reaching a
0.3mg/dL limit of detection (LOD). Ultrasensitive protein detection by PCB
devices has also been accomplished. Jacobs etal. [52] sputtered ZnO on PCB chips to detect a pro­tein biomarker for cardiovascular diseases. Their aim was to exploit the inherently nano-textured ZnO surfaces for electrochemical biosensing on the cost-effective PCB platform. Screen-printed silver electrodes were made by means of conven­tional PCB technology to detect carcinoembry­onic antigen (CEA) protein, a cancer biomarker [53]. A novel antibody-like biomimetic material has been used as a biorecognition element result­ing in sensitive (pg CEA per mL), rapid (15-min maximum incubation period) and precise (5% signal change) performance at a tenth of the man­ufacturing cost of traditional commercial devices.
Adopting alternative approaches, the coulter
principle has been applied to enumerate tumor cells on a PCB chip [54, 55], showing compara­ble performance to a commercial cytometer with the added benet of PoC capability. Sanchez etal. achieved an impressive selectivity of seven breast cancer gene markers with LOD of 25 pM by multiplex amplication and detection of mRNA on gold PCB electrode-arrays [56]. Furthermore, Jolly etal. developed a DNA micro­uidic sensor by immobilising PNA probes on PCB gold micro-electrodes [57]. They researched two different industrially-applied PCB gold elec­troplating technologies (soft and hard plating), reporting LOD as low as 57 fM, highlighting sig­nicant achievements for electrochemical DNA sensing on PCB electrodes.
Paving the way for high-quality commercial
products, Moschou et al. [58] incorporated a commercially available assay for IFN-gamma immunosensing into a double-layer PCB chip, that consisted of a reference electrode layer (sil­ver plated) and a sensing electrode layer (gold plated). The rst layer also included cylindrical, gold-plated micro-chambers for solution han­dling. The described chip is shown in Fig.7.5b. This platform was later upgraded to a microu­idic one, optimised for microuidic diffusion kinetics [59]. These studies were two of several assisted by partnerships between academia and

Stable PCB Ag/AgCl electrodes could serve as biosen­sor integral reference electrodes [4, 82] and long­term hydrophilisation stability of FR-4 would be advantageous for passive microuidics [61, 83]. More specically, the PCB reference electrodes demonstrated stable open circuit potential behav­ior under continuous buffer ow of various pH values and the suitably treated FR-4 surfaces

Key steps in the realisation of this idea involve the layer stack manager conguration and the design rule check (DRC) set of the CAD software to facilitate the microuidics design along with the creation of libraries dedicated solely to the microuidic and
sensing components (Fig.7.6). retained their hydrophilic properties for at least 26days.
Furthermore, unication of electronic and
7.3 Conclusion
microuidic manufacturing processes in the PCB industry mandates the same unifying practice in the design phase. Hence, adoption of the PCB industry standard CAD software to design the microuidic structures of the Lab-on-PCB plat­form represents a very welcome recent ambition [84, 85]. Essentially, this achieves merger of electronic and microuidic design within a single computer assisted design (CAD) platform result-

diagnostic related application, enabling highly accurate analyte quantication at the point of need, ideal characteristics for potency assay applications. Highly advantageous features of Lab-on-PCB technology are the long-standing industrial infrastructure, established appropriate micro-fabrication capabilities and the intuitive electronics integration. Research focus on manu­facturing techniques and materials for integration of microuidics with mature and established PCB industry practices, has achieved successful proofs of principle in recent years. In several cases, the microuidic integration is accom­plished by bonding the uidic compartment, usu­ally made from glass/PMMA/PDMS, onto the PCB chip housing the electronics. Alternatively, channel formation directly on the PCB, i.e. by metal etching, essentially using the metallic lay­er’s thickness as the channel’s walls, introduces a holistic integration simplicity that distinguishes of the Lab-on-PCB LoC eld. These hallmarks lay foundation for the full exploitation of the up­scaling advantages that the PCB platform offers with promise for cost-effective potency assays. Use of graphene ink drop-casted to form a tran­sistor channel helped establish the rst example of an electrolyte gated eld-effect transistor (FET)-based PCB biosensor [86] introduces ver­satility for sensitive measurement of a broad range of potential biomarker types [87].
