title = "Thread-based analytical device for antibody detection in whole blood by using bioluminescent sensor proteins",
abstract = "Bioluminescent protein integrating microfluidic thread-based analytical devices (µTADs) for point-of-care testing (POCT) of antibodies in whole blood have been developed. Devices consist of a blood separation membrane and a plastic film layer with sewn-in cotton thread, in which proteins and luciferin for signal generation are pre-deposited. Colorimetry-based response curves for three model antibodies spiked into porcine whole blood have been obtained. Stable signals from 6-18 min after sample application and no cross-talk when assaying multiple different antibodies are observed. The µTADs offer quantitative simultaneous detection of multiple antibodies in a small volume of whole blood (8 µL).",
