Wicking in Porous Polymeric Membranes: Determination of an Effective Capillary Radius to Predict the Flow Behavior in Lateral Flow Assays

The working principle of lateral flow assays, such as the widely used COVID-19 rapid tests, is based on the capillary-driven liquid transport of a sample fluid to a test line using porous polymeric membranes as the conductive medium. In order to predict this wicking process by simplified analytical...
