"Lab-on-a-disc", in which centrifugal force is used to pump fluid, has been a powerful tool for biological and chemical analysis due to its capability to integrate and automate all the process into a disc-shaped device that can be operated by simple, small-sized, and cost-efficient instrument. We report various examples of fully integrated lab-on-a-disc for biomedical applications such as pathogen specific DNA extraction to test infectious diseases, enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA), simultaneous detection of blood chemistry and immunoassay, and multiplexed immunoassays starting from whole blood.
