The ability to obtain sequence-specific genetic information about rare target organisms directly from complex biological samples at the point-of-care would transform many areas of biotechnology. Microfluidics technology offers compelling tools for integrating multiple biochemical processes in a single device, but despite significant progress, only limited examples have shown specific, genetic analysis of clinical samples within the context of a fully integrated, portable platform. Herein we present the Magnetic Integrated Microfluidic Electrochemical Detector (MIMED) that integrates sample preparation and electrochemical sensors in a monolithic disposable device to detect RNA-based virus directly from throat swab samples. By combining immunomagnetic target capture, concentration, and purification, reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) generation in the sample preparation chamber, as well as sequence-specific electrochemical DNA detection in the electrochemical cell, we demonstrate the detection of influenza H1N1 in throat swab samples at loads as low as 10 TCID(50), 4 orders of magnitude below the clinical titer for this virus. Given the availability of affinity reagents for a broad range of pathogens, our system offers a general approach for multitarget diagnostics at the point-of-care.
