Summary, etc. This research work focuses on the development of high-performance capillary pumps<br/>for low-cost point-of-care diagnostic devices using printed circuit board (PCB) technology.<br/>The study explores the design and fabrication of capillary pumps using PCBs and<br/>polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to create microfluidic devices. Two different designs of PCBbased micropumps with hexagonal-shaped micropillars are proposed, offering different vertical<br/>distances between rows to achieve varying flow rates and fluid volumes. The fabrication<br/>process involves designing the PCB microchannel, cutting the PCB fiber sheet, creating silicon<br/>molds, pouring and curing PDMS, bonding the PDMS replicas to a substrate, and testing the<br/>micropump's performance for both the designs. Experimental setups are established to measure<br/>the flow rate and pressure drop of various glycerin ratio solutions in the microfluidic system.<br/>The results indicate that as the glycerin content increases, the flow rate decreases due to<br/>increased fluid viscosity. Design 1 consistently exhibits higher flow rates than Design 2 due to<br/>the smaller gap distance between micropillars. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of<br/>PCB-based capillary pumps in controlling fluid flow and offer valuable insights for the<br/>development of low-cost point-of-care diagnostic devices. The design of micropumps for<br/>studying blood flow at low flow rates offers significant advantages in investigating bloodrelated conditions. The precise control overflow rates, realistic simulations, integration with<br/>microfluidic systems, drug delivery studies, and reduced sample requirements all contribute to<br/>a deeper understanding of blood disorders and the development of personalized treatment<br/>approaches.
