    Rapid and sensitive detection of Dengue virus remains a critical challenge in global public health. This study presents the development and evaluation of a Zinc Oxide nanorod (ZnO NR)-surface-integrated microfluidic platform for the early detection of Dengue virus. Utilizing a seed-assisted hydrothermal synthesis method, high-purity ZnO NRs were synthesized, characterized by their hexagonal wurtzite structure and a high surface-to-volume ratio, offering abundant binding sites for bioconjugation. Further, a comparative analysis demonstrated that the ZnO NR substrate outperformed traditional bare glass substrates in functionalization efficiency with 4G2 monoclonal antibody (mAb). Subsequent optimization of the functionalization process identified 4% (3-Glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) as the most effective surface modifier. The integration of this substrate within a herringbone-structured microfluidic platform resulted in a robust device for immunofluorescence detection of DENV-3. The limit of detection (LOD) for DENV-3 was observed to be as low as 3.1 × 10<sup>−4</sup> ng/mL, highlighting the remarkable sensitivity of the ZnO NR-integrated microfluidic device. This study emphasizes the potential of ZnO NRs and the developed microfluidic platform for the early detection of DENV-3, with possible expansion to other biological targets, hence paving the way for enhanced public health responses and improved disease management strategies.

    In this work, we design, fabricate and characterize a new interference-free multichannel monolithic quartz crystal microbalance (MQCM) platform for bio-sensing applications. Firstly, interference due to thickness-shear vibration mode coupling between channels in MQCM array is effectively suppressed by interposing a polydimethylsiloxane wall between adjacent QCM electrodes on a quartz substrate to form inverted-mesa-like structure. In addition, the electrical coupling due to the electrical impedance of solution is diminished by extending the flow path between them with an extended-design flow channel. The electrical testing results show that individual QCM signal is unaffected by those of adjacent channels under liquid loading, signifying the achievement of interference-free MQCM. The MQCM is applied for multi-analyte biosensing of IgG and HSA. The anti-IgG and anti-HSA are separately immobilized on two adjacent QCM electrodes, which are subsequently blocked with BSA to avoid unspecific binding. The MQCM biosensors are tested with single- and double-analyte solutions under continuous flow of buffer. The IgG and HSA QCM sensors only show frequency shift responses to their corresponding analytes and there are very small cross frequency shifts due to remnant unspecific binding. Moreover, MQCM sensors show approximately linear frequency shift response with analyte concentration. Therefore, the developed MQCM platform is promising for real-time interference-free label-free detection and quantification of multiple bio-analytes.
