Paper-Based Device for the Colorimetric Determination of Glucose in Whole-Blood Samples Using a Smartphone.

ABSTRACT: In many clinical settings, there is a great need for rapid, simple, and reliable diagnostic tools for the detection and quantification of various biomarkers. These tools enable early medical decisions, which can significantly influence patient recovery. Paper-based analytical devices (PADs) have become promising platforms for rapid and low-cost diagnostic testing in recent years. Among the most important biomarkers is glucose, a key metabolite involved in numerous physiological processes, which allows for the diagnosis and control of diabetes, the prevention of serious long-term complications such as cardiovascular disease, and the monitoring of the effect of medication, diet, and exercise on sugar levels in these patients. A fundamental step in detecting this marker in laboratories is the
