  Rapid Microfluidic Biosensor for Point-of-Care Detection of Rheumatoid Arthritis through Anti-cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody Analysis
  Author(s): Muhammad Abdulaziz*
  
  The detection of rheumatoid arthritis a chronic autoimmune disorder, relies on early diagnosis to manage symptoms and slow disease progression effectively. Among the most specific biomarkers for RA are anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies, which often appear in the bloodstream long before clinical symptoms manifest. Conventional laboratory-based diagnostic methods, while effective, are time-consuming, require specialized facilities, and are inaccessible to many patients in low-resource settings. To address these limitations, rapid microfluidic biosensors have emerged as a promising solution for point-of-care detection of RA through the analysis of anti-CCP antibodies. These biosensors combine the principles of microfluidics and advanced bio-detection techniques, offering a fast, portable, and highly sensitive alternative for early diagnosis. Microfluidic biosensors are devices.. Read More»
