ABSTRACT
In pipeline production, there is a considerable distance between the moment when the operation principle of a biosensor will be verified in the laboratory until the moment when it can be used in real conditions. This distance is often covered by an optimization and packaging process. This article described the packaging and optimization of a SARS-CoV-2 biosensor, as well as the packaging of its electronic readout circuit. The biosensor was packed with a photosensitive tape, which forms a protective layer and is patterned in a way to form a well in the sensing area. The well is meant to limit the liquid diffusion, thereby reducing the measurement error. Subsequently, a connector between the biosensor and its readout circuit was designed and 3D-printed, ensuring the continuous and easy reading of the biosensor. In the last step, a three-dimensional case was designed and printed, thus protecting the circuit from any damage, and allowing its operation in real conditions.

The International Conference on Electronic and Advanced Materials (ICEAM) 2021 was held online on the 2nd November 2021 streaming from Digital Management and Development Centre, Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). This conference was organized by the Center of Excellence Geopolymer & Green Technology (CEGeoGTech), UniMAP, with Tin Solder Technology Research Group (TSTRG) MALAYSIA and The Electronics Packaging Research Society (EPRS) as co-organizer. The conference was also sponsored by the Tin Industry (R&D) Board. The conference was held virtually in order to follow the standard operation procedure imposed by the Malaysian government due to the COVID-19 movement control order and travel restriction.The conference serves as the best platform for sharing and exchanging ideas on Advanced Materials topics such as electronic materials, ceramic materials and geopolymer, bio-materials, polymers and rubber, and composites. The conference aimed to provide a platform for scientists, researchers, and students in the related field to discuss current research progress, challenges, and practical solutions that could be adopted to keep abreast in this challenging world. The program provides networking and cooperation amongst academicians, scientists, researchers, and engineers from the materials sciences and engineering fields.List of Organizing committee is available in this pdf.
