Abstract
We developed a microfluidic based lab-on-a-chip system for rapid and accurate detection of different types of bacteria that may contribute to certain types of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The microfluidic cartridge contains integrated micropumps and heaters to perform a DNA microarray-based detection fully automatically. The newly-developed fluorescence detection and control instrument together with the cartridges will assist clinicians in the decision-making process for antibiotic therapy in order to improve specific outcomes that would concomitantly improve wound healing per se in DFU scenarios.
