Abstract
Rapid analysis of airborne pathogens plays a critical role in early warning of spreading infectious diseases, which is essential for public health and disease prevention. Herein we report an integrated microfluidic device that can perform airborne pathogen capture, enrichment and continuous-flow high-throughput gene analysis. The device was validated by six frequently encountered bacteria and shows great potential in environmental analysis and for public health protection.
