Sensitive colorimetric sensor for point-of-care detection of acetylcholinesterase using cobalt oxyhydroxide nanoflakes

. Interestingly, the proposed platform was applied to fabricate a paper-based sensor for rapidly recognizing AChE by direct observation with the naked eyes. Combined with a smartphone and ImageJ software, we further developed an image-processing algorithm for the quantitative detection of AChE with highly promising results, which validated the outstanding potential of on-site application in clinical diagnostics and pesticide poisoning.
