    Hand-held biosensor makes breast cancer screening fast, affordable, and accurate
    https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/02/240213130400.htm

    Summary:
    Researchers report successful results from a hand-held breast cancer screening device
    that can detect breast cancer biomarkers from a tiny sample of saliva.
    Their design uses common components, such as widely available glucose testing strips
    and the open-source hardware-software platform Arduino.
    A saliva sample is placed on the paper strip, which has been treated with specific
    antibodies that interact with the targeted cancer biomarkers.
