title: An inkjet-printed bioactive paper sensor that reports ATP through odour generation.
abstract: We describe an inkjet printed paper-based sensor that reports ATP by the enzyme catalysed hydrolysis of S-methyl-L-cysteine generating an odour (methyl mercaptan) that is easily detectable by the human nose.
