Abstract
Bead-based assays are traditionally difficult to adapt for high-sensitivity quantitative point-of-care diagnostics. Here we use lensfree optical microscopes with automated image processing to quantitatively sense specific proteins in solution via the agglutination of functionalized beads within a microfluidic chip. Simple protocols and compact and inexpensive readout devices make our approach well-suited for point-of-care diagnostics. We sense interferon gamma, a biomarker of infectious and inflammatory disease, as well as NeutrAvidin. Furthermore, we discuss computational methods for improving the identification of small particles in the lensfree images, including sparsity-promoting regularized reconstruction and vectorial Green’s function modeling based on dipole electromagnetic scattering theory.
