Solid state fluid transport and sensing based on printed and embedded cellulose-polymer composites: An alternative pathway to paper-based microfluidic devices

Here we present an alternative technological approach to paper-based microfluidics that, to the best of our knowledge, has not been reported so far.Instead of defining fluid conducting paths by cutting fluidic structures, or by printing hydrophobic substances on paper, we prepare cellulose/polymer composites that can be printed additively on, in pr
