Performance Optimization of a Microfluidic Virus Detection Cartridge: A Numerical and Experimental Study.

Detection and imaging of viruses in a complex solution is particularly significant for virology and requires a comprehensive understanding of biosensors. While lab-on-a-chip systems are used in virus detection as biosensors, analysis and optimization of these systems are especially challenging due to the size of the system to be used in the certain application. The system of interest for virus detection is required to be cost efficient and is also needed to be able to easily operable with a simple setup.
