Recent Development of Wearable Microfluidics Applied in Body Fluid Testing and Drug Delivery

The most recent developments of the wearable microfluidics applied in body fluid testing and drug delivery and their applications in life monitoring was introduced in this review. Wearable microfluidics was widely applied in the medical, sports and military field. With the help of wearable microfluidics, the pH, glucose, lactate, Na+/K+, Ca2+ and heavy metal in the body fluid could be detected from sweat, tear and saliva without puncture for blood. These information are of great importance for the monitoring of vital signs and disease diagnosis. The up-to-date research development in the drug delivery using wearable microfluidics and the outlook of the emerging trend in this field were also briefly introduced in this review.
