Albumin detection using free-standing nanosensor paint. a Nanotube blended with acrylic-based paint forming a free-standing film. b Schematic showing probe-based system used to excite nanotubes and collect NIR emission. c Photograph showing data acquisition using the probe-based system. d Emission intensity response of the nanosensor paint to albumin. e Emission wavelength response of the nanosensor paint to albumin. f Nanosensor paint response from microalbuminuria patient’s urine samples (S004, S005, and S006). The data in panels d–f show the response of the (9, 4) nanotube chirality. Error bars represent standard deviation for n = 3 technical replicates
