(b) A prototype microfluidic chip with serpentine resuspension regions and a reagent plug installed. (c) A photograph of a microfluidic reagent cassette containing pre-stored reagents. The microfluidic reagent cassette is part of a smartphone dongle for the testing of biomarkers such as HIV and syphilis antibodies. (d) The sequence of flow through the test cassette. From the inlet, fluids move through each detection zone sequentially, then flowing into a waste pad.

(b) The smartphone’s camera is used to record diffraction images of the specimen. The recorded images are transferred to a server via the cloud service for real-time image reconstruction and analyses, which can be returned to the smartphone in less than 2 min. (c) Lens free-imaging approach using illumination at primary RGB wavelengths simultaneously. Relative depths of the hologram planes used for phase retrieval.

(a) Illustration of TDI capture mode. The CCD’s delay time is matched with the cell’s velocity in the flow cell as it traverses the length of the camera’s field of view, providing an integrated readout of the cell’s fluorescent emission. Different spectral components originating from multiple fluorescent markers are separated horizontally along with the columns of the CCD. (b) Cell’s fluorescence spectrally resolved via the spectrograph. Figure reproduced with permission from ref.111, Copyright 2019 American Chemical Society.
Temporally coded excitation fluorescence microscope. (a) Chopper wheel that modulates the fluorescence excitation with a pseudo-random code. (b) Cells travel through a microfluidic device and the fluorescence emission is imaged by a microscope (0.65 NA, 40×) and recorded onto a camera. (c) Blur encoded images are captured by the camera and computationally decoded to produce near-diffraction-limited images.
