EARLY LIVER DAMAGE BIOSENSOR Abstract: Liver disease is a major global health issue, and early detection of liver damage remains challenging due to the need for centralized laboratory testing and reliance on single-biomarker diagnostics. This project addresses the need for a rapid, low-cost, and accessible diagnostic tool for early and accurate detection of liver injury. The overall objective is to develop a paper-based, cell-free biosensor capable of detecting and grading liver damage from a finger-prick blood sample.
