Centrifugation-assisted lateral flow assay platform: enhancing bioassay sensitivity with active flow control

Abstract Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are widely used in point-of-care testing (POCT) due to their simplicity and rapid operation. However, their reliance on passive capillary flow limits sensitivity, making it challenging to detect low-abundance biomarkers accurately. Approaches such as computer sign...
