abstract = "This paper presents an integrated and self-contained microfluidic system for monitoring the progression of the HIV infection by counting and sorting CD4 cells. The system can handle raw blood samples without the need of off-chip sample preparation. In addition, the system has integrated a laser diode onto the microchip as the light source, making it more compact and portable. Compared with the current blood analysis method performed in central laboratories, our system is low cost, portable and low requirement for maintenance, and thus could be used for point-of-care diagnosis.",
