Abstract

This invention concerns a flow-channel bioanalytical device combined with a chemotherapy technique. Electrochemistry for diagnostic purposes classifies three types of respiratory tract infections: coronavirus infections, etc. This invented device can treat coronavirus, influenza, and RSV infections simultaneously. A transparent sheet with a polymer coating to make the transparent sheet hydrophilic (11) that is screen printed. Counter electrode (CE) positions (5), (8), (10) and reference electrode RE) positions (7), (6), (9) and there is a hole at position 1 for dropping the mixed solution. Potassium ferrocyanide and potassium ferricyanide for measurement are placed in this layer, which is positioned on top. This fabricated measuring device is followed by a layer of flow channels (13) made of double-sided adhesive tape with Drill a flow channel at position (12) to provide a flow path for the potassium ferro solution. Cyanide and potassium ferricyanide can move from position (1) to the detection area at position (20), (21), and (22) are obtained. The next sequence is the flow channel layer (15), which is made of transparent sheets with a polymer coating. Attach it to the double-sided tape and make a hole at position (14) to allow the potassium solution to mix. Ferrocyanide and potassium ferricyanide are confined to the electrode junction area. The work involves only the auxiliary electrodes and reference electrodes, and the bottom layer is a paper base layer with wax printing. (wax) (19) To define the boundaries of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts by the front of the paper base device. Consists of screen-printed electrodes for the detection of influenza virus (H1N1) (16), viruses RSV (17) and coronavirus (SARS CoV-2) (18) and the posterior part at positions (20), (21), and (22) The position corresponding to the working electrode will be used to set up a specific nucleic acid biosensor. The influenza virus (H1N1), the respiratory virus (RSV), and the coronavirus are shown in layers, respectively. The improvised devices can be assembled together using double-sided tape.
