The expected structure was drawn with Autodesk123D software (Autodesk Inc, CA, USA), saved as a stl format file, and loaded into the software Slic3r, which is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3. The infill density, the printing speed, and the layer height were assigned in Slic3r. Other typical parameters assigned in Slic3r include: top 0, bottom 0; 90° infill angle, 10 mm2 solid infill threshold area; skirt, loop 0; extrusion width, the first layer 0%. The pre-designed structures were then printed via a Solidoodle® 3D printer platform with a nozzle size of 300 µm. Open source software (Prontrface®) was employed to control the 3 stepper motors with an effective resolution of 100 µm in the x- and y-axis, and a minimum layer height of 50 µm in the z-axis. Polyvinyl alcohol filament, with a diameter of 1.75 mm, was used as the constructing material, and the printing temperature was set at 190 °C.

Detection strips were incorporated into a 3D printed cartridge to provide robustness and facilitate their usability. The 3D design was first created with Autodesk 123D software (Autodesk, California, USA) and afterwards processed with Cura software (Ultimaker, Utrecht, The Netherlands) to be ready for printing. On the one hand, backings were 3D printed in polylactic acid (PLA) biodegradable polyester using a Prusa i3 mk3printer (Prusa Research, Prague, Czech Republic) with a 0.6 mm nozzle and 0.4 mm base layer height. On the other hand, a testing rack with hermetic cuvettes for every step of the immunoassay was printed in resin using a Photon MonoX printer (Anycubic, Shenzhen, China). These 3D printed pieces were designed and produced in collaboration with the Egokitek 3D Company (Donostia-San Sebastian, Spain).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
