A 3D printed microfluidic device for scalable multiplexed CRISPR-cas12a biosensing

Accurate, rapid, and multiplexed nucleic acid detection is critical for environmental and biomedical monitoring. In recent years, CRISPR-Cas12a has shown great potential in improving the performance of DNA biosensing. However, the nonspecific trans-cleavage activity of Cas12a complicates the multiplexing capability of Cas12a biosensing. We report a 3D-printed composable microfluidic plate (cPlate) device that utilizes miniaturized wells and microfluidic loading for a multiplexed CRISPR-Cas12a assay. The device easily combines loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and CRISPR-Cas12a readout in a simple and high-throughput workflow with low reagent consumption. To ensure the maximum performance of the device, the concentration of Cas12a and detection probe was optimized, which yielded a four-fold sensitivity improvement. Our device demonstrates sensitive detection to the fg $ mL^{− 1} $ level for four waterborne pathogens including shigella, campylobacter, cholera, and legionella within 1 h, making it suitable for low-resource settings.
