A paper presents the design, fabrication, and thermal evaluation of a printed circuit board (PCB) based copper (Cu) microheater that can be integrated with microfluidic chips to initiate the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). A series of 3D finite element electro-thermal simulations were...
