A portable temperature-humidity control device was developed for sensitive LFA.
Quantitative analysis of LFA signal was performed using a smartphone.
Temperatures of 55-60 °C with a RH > 60% allowed optimum nucleic acid detection in LFA.
Temperatures of 37-40 °C with a RH > 60% allowed optimum antigen detection in LFA.
The device holds potential to be coupled with a fully integrated paper-based biosensor.
