The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a microbial detection device, microbial detection method, microbial detection kit and microbial detection device. The manufacturing method includes the following steps: defining a sampling portion and a reaction portion on a substrate. Fiber materials are disposed in the reaction portion and a surface of the reaction portion which contacts with the fiber materials comprises abundant hydroxyl groups. Reaction reagents are then added into the fiber materials. An acidic solution is applied to treat the fiber materials and the hydroxyl groups in the reaction portion.

A food safety detection device includes a xylem fiber substrate, which is configured with a sampling portion and a reaction portion. The reaction portion includes at least one chemical reagent. The sampling portion absorbs a test sample. The test sample moves on the xylem fiber substrate to the reaction portion and reacts with the chemical reagent. A manufacturing method for the food safety detection device is also disclosed. The food safety detection device is advantageous for easy operation, safety and rapid analysis.

A biomedical testing sheet comprises: a substrate with calligraphy paper material, wherein the substrate comprises a wax pattern layer, which is a part of a surface of the substrate coated by a waxy material, and penetrated and diffused by the waxy material, and the wax pattern layer comprises one or more carrying units for carrying one or more droplets of liquids to be measured. The lotus effect substantially prevents diffusion of the liquids and reagents on the carrying units, and reduces the required amount of liquids to be measured and the amount of agent.

A three dimensional lignocellulosic detection device includes a first lignocellulosic substrate and a second lignocellulosic substrate. When the first lignocellulosic substrate is in contact with a liquid specimen through capillary effect, the sample is absorbed into the second lignocellulosic substrate through the first lignocellulosic substrate, reacts with the detecting reagent on the second lignocellulosic substrate and makes a detection test. The three dimensional lignocellulosic detection device of the present invention has the inherent advantages of a lignocellulosic material such as natural material, low cost, easy manipulation and capillary effect and results in a good preventive diagnostic platform. Also, users may achieve preventive disease diagnostic without spending additional time and/or money.

A biomedical diagnostic device includes a hydrophilic layer, hydrophobic layer, and at least one test pad. The hydrophilic layer includes an exposed introductory portion adapted to introduce a test fluid, and is stacked with the hydrophobic layer with multiple access holes. At least one test pad, each of which includes a distinguishing reaction medium, is disposed in the corresponding holes that extend to contact the hydrophilic layer. The relations within the device are as follows: hydrophilicity of any of the test pads&#x3e;hydrophilicity of the hydrophilic layer&#x3e;hydrophilicity of the hydrophobic layer.
