Microfluidic device
Disclosed is a microfluidic device for detecting the presence and/or amount of analytes in a fluid comprising a first and a second element both comprising a hydrophobic surface. Both hydrophobic surfaces comprise a hydrophilic pathway, wherein the hydrophilic pathways are configured in a mirror image of each other in such a way that when the first and second elements are placed upon each other with the hydrophilic pathways facing each other a capillary fluid channel on the hydrophobic surfaces of the elements is formed, and wherein at least one of the hydrophilic pathways comprises a sensing region comprising capture means.
