Studying ion transport dynamics in electrochemical measurements of lateral flow assays

Lateral Flow Assays (LFAs) are among the most widely used biosensors. Conventional colorimetric LFAs yield binary, non-quantifiable results. Electrochemical LFAs (eLFAs) aim to overcome this limitation. However, the reported disadvantage of extreme sensitivity to experimental conditions poses a sign...

description Lateral Flow Assays (LFAs) are among the most widely used biosensors. Conventional colorimetric LFAs yield binary, non-quantifiable results. Electrochemical LFAs (eLFAs) aim to overcome this limitation. However, the reported disadvantage of extreme sensitivity to experimental conditions poses a significant challenge in the development of new eLFAs. In this work, impedimetric measurements were performed to probe the impact of experimental factors such as electrolyte conductivity/ionic strength on the eLFA outcomes. The time-dependent evolution of non-Faradaic impedance measurements coupled with flow velocity computations were employed to investigate ion transport across different LFA configurations and buffer compositions. The analysis of the Péclet number, a characteristic dimensionless parameter of flow dynamics within the LFA, revealed the coexistence of diffusive and convective ionic transport regimes over the LFA operational time. In addition, our findings underscore the critical role of absorbent pad dead volume adjustments in governing the capacity to maintain sample flow within the membrane over extended durations. These electro-fluidics phenomena are essential considerations for conducting electrochemical measurements within LFAs. Overall, this study offers insights into key design parameters for the integration of electrochemistry into LFAs.
