Shilpa Sivashankar, et al., "Flexible low-cost cardiovascular risk marker biosensor for point-of-care applications." Electronics Letters 51 (22), 2015, 1746. Abstract: The detection and quantification of protein on a laser written flexible substrate for point-of-care applications are described. A unique way of etching gold on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate is demonstrated by reducing the damage that may be caused on PET sheets otherwise. On the basis of the quantity of the C-reactive protein (CRP) present in the sample, the risk of cardiac disease can be assessed. This hsCRP test
