The disclosure relates to methods of manufacturing and using a single layer microfluidic for detecting target analytes, including obtaining a single layer sheet of paper; depositing wax boundaries onto the paper in a plurality of patterns including a main channel, fluid transfer channels, and an independent diagnostic area corresponding to each fluid transfer channel; melting the wax through the paper; depositing diagnostic components onto the diagnostic areas; depositing a continuous wax backing; and cutting devices from the paper. The disclosure also relates to a method of capturing an image of the micro fluidic device to generate diagnostic results corresponding to the diagnostic components by: identifying at least two panels from the image; and determining a color for each panel of the at least two panels; and generating for display, using the computing device, a graphical user-interface including at least one component visualizing the diagnostic results.
