In this work, a low-cost fluidic platform or so-called ‘Lab-on-Paper’ (LoP) was developed using filter paper. A detection box, furnished with a digital camera, was constructed and used to detect color compound on the filter paper. The image obtained from the camera was analyzed by commercial software called ‘Photoscape 3.6’ to obtain the R (red), G (green) and B (blue) values. The camera detection was first tested by printing bands of the major colors including ‘red’, ‘green’ and ‘blue’ colors on filter paper. The image of these color bands was taken using the digital camera inside the detection box. The plots between the input R, G and B values of the printing and the obtained R, G and B values from the camera image are satisfactorily linear: r2=0.981 (red); r2=0.988 (green) and r2=0.966 (blue). The images taken from use of blue dye solutions (0%-20%w/v) dropped and let dried on filter paper also resulted linear relationship for G and B values: r2=0.974 (green) and r2=0.992 (blue). Herein, an ink-jet printing technology using alkenyl ketene dimer was adopted for channel patterning microfluidic paper-based platform to control the area of fluidic analysis and color formation.
