Research topics from publications: Sample-to-Answer Hepatitis B Virus DNA Detection from Whole Blood on a Centrifugal Microfluidic Platform with Double Rotation Axes; MiR-19b-3p attenuates IL-1β induced extracellular matrix degradation and inflammatory injury in chondrocytes by targeting GRK6. Representative work: A point-of-care apparatus for hepatitis virus detection requires simple and easy-to-use processing steps and should have the same diagnostic capability as that in the central laboratory. However, no automated and efficient methods for hepatitis B virus (HBV) sample-to-answer detection include serum separation, and complete prestorage of reagents has been developed. We developed an automated sample-to-answer disc for rapid HBV detection from whole blood based on a double rotation axes centrifugal microfluidic platform. The disc with complete prestorage of reagents features fully automated and integrated serum separation from whole blood, magnetic bead-based DNA extraction, aliquoting of the n
