Abstract

The main focus of this chapter is to discuss the primary materials and processes relevant to the development of paper-based analytical devices, including the steps required for the separation of cellulose from wood and non-wood sources and how some of the additives added to the material could impact the analytical properties of the resulting analytical devices. The chapter also discusses the most important routes for the chemical modification of cellulose, including thermal treatment.
