London, Sept 24 : You can now create your own lab-on-a-chip device by just writing on a piece of paper. All you need is the right paper, ink, and sunlight to create a microfluidic device that can not only test water quality but identify pathogens also.

The new method, developed by George Whitesides and colleagues at Harvard, could help developing countries access the latest lab techniques.

The researchers have found that the pores naturally present in paper can carry liquids just like standard chips.

In order to make impermeable "walls" to confine the fluids into narrow channels, they use a polymer liquid that sets hard when exposed to UV light called photoresist, which is used to etch designs onto silicon chips.

London, Sept 24 : Detecting contamination in water will now take just thirty minutes and thirty dollars, thanks to a new test developed at Australia''''s Environmental Biotechnology Cooperative Research Centre near Sydney.

While natural disasters such as tsunamis or floods often leave local water sources tainted with harmful bacteria, the existing tests for contamination take almost three days to produce a result.

But, the new test takes just half an hour and makes the testing process a lot faster and economical, reports New Scientist.

For detecting the contaminants, antibodies attached to tiny magnets are added to the water.
