Dec 1, 2015 · Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have become an invaluable technology to advance the development of point-of-care (POC) devices for diagnostics and sample analyses. MEMS can transform sophisticated methods into compact and cost-effective microdevices that offer numerous advantages at many levels.

The Atlanta Center for Microsystems-Engineered Point-of-Care Technologies (ACME POCT) is a nationally renowned academic partnership between Emory University, Georgia Tech, and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

ACME POCT is focused on the development and translation of microsystems-engineered POCT technologies including microchip-enabled devices that include microelectromechanical systems (MEMs)-based sensors, microfluidics, and smartphone-based systems.

Nov 30, 2022 · A new generation of MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) sensors enables point of care testing to be done easily, accurately and reliably on a single drop of blood or urine at the patient's bed side or even in remote locations, such as, …

To perform POCT, priority should be given to developing POCT methods and POCT devices. Rapid advances in microfluidics, MEMS technology, nanotechnology and materials science have led to the production of integrated POCT devices that meet these criteria for POCT of various infectious diseases.

ACME-POCT is focused on the development and translation of microsystems-engineered technologies including microchip-enabled devices that include microelectromechanical systems (MEMs)-based sensors, microfluidics, and smartphone-based systems.

Dec 1, 2015 · MEMS can transform sophisticated methods into compact and cost-effective microdevices that offer numerous advantages at many levels. Such devices include microchannels, microsensors, etc., that have been applied to various miniaturized POC products.

Palmtop-type blood cell counter with impedance method is our primary design target. The focus is on the development of disposable cartridge-type sensor and sampling part by Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology. The disposable cartridge needs no cleaning and eliminates the fear of contamination by other samples.

May 21, 2020 · Lab-on-a-chip (LoC) platforms facilitate the translation to PoC settings via the miniaturization, portability, integration, and automation of multiple assay functions onto a single chip.
