Laser-scribed graphene nanofiber decorated with oil palm lignin capped silver nanoparticles: a green biosensor

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), requires a high level of attention and is one of the most infectious diseases in the air. Present methods of diagnosing TB remain ineffective owing to their low sensitivity and time consumption. In this study, we pro...
