Uncertainty quantification in modeling of microfluidic T-sensor based diffusion immunoassay.

Comparison of experimental data with modeling predictions is essential for making quantitative measurements of species properties, such as diffusion coefficients and species concentrations using a T-sensor. To make valid comparisons between experimental data and model predictions, it is necessary to account for uncertainty in model predictions due to uncertain values of model parameters. We present an analysis of uncertainty induced in model predictions of a T-sensor based competitive diffusion immunoassay due to uncertainty in diffusion constants, binding reaction rate constants, and inlet flow speed.
