摘要

The early diagnosis and successful treatment of dengue fever depend on detecting dengue virus non-structural protein 1 (NS1). This study investigates the integration of electrochemical detection with digital microfluidics (DMF) to quickly and accurately detect NS1. DMF platforms offer precise manipulation of small volumes of fluids, enabling automated and high-throughput analysis.

In our approach, carbon-based electrodes with NS1 antibodies were utilised to capture the NS1 antigen from the sample. This study reviews the droplet size of various DMF applications that met the size of the 10 µl NS1 antigen droplet in our preliminary results. We employed cyclic voltammetry (CV) to measure the current response and correlated it with the NS1 concentration.
