Abstract

Sensitive detection of PFOA, type of PFAS (perfluorinated-alkyl substances), was demonstrated on paper-based microfluidic chip utilizing competitive binding with albumin or casein and cellulose fibers. It altered the capillary flow rate profile and monitored by a smartphone camera. Detection limit was 1-10 fg/μL (1-10 ppt).
