Lab-on-a-chip based portable blood analysis
systems would allow point-of-care measurements, e.g. in
an ambulance, or in remote areas with no fast access to
medical care. Such a systemwould provide much faster information
about the health of a patient. Here,we present a
system that is based on absorption spectroscopy and uses
an organic laser, which is tunable in the visible range. The
feasibility of the system is shown with a table-top setup
using laboratory equipment. Measurements of human albumin
show linear behaviour in a range from 2.5 g/L to
60 g/L. In a consecutive setup the system is implemented
on a microfluidic chip and is capable of measuring
simultaneously transmitted and side scattered intensities,
even with ambient light present. Air-suspended grating
couplers on polymers are shown as the first element of a
lab-on-a-chip implementation.
