Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) have gained significant attention in science and technology due to their numerous advantages over traditional techniques, including cost-effectiveness, miniaturization, sustainability. µPADs are widely used point-of-care diagnostics, health monitoring, environmental detection, food safety, forensics, security. Since the first report 2007, there been substantial advancements fabrication detection methods, applications. Over years, efforts made improve manufacturing scalability, user-friendliness, sustainability of µPADs. In this review, we explore general trends fabrication, sensing applications µPADs, highlighting key improvements innovations. We also examine eco-friendliness present real-world success stories from field studies citizen initiatives. Additionally, address challenges associated with transitioning lab field. Finally, outlook for propose strategies usefulness various fields.
