Abstract
Virus detection is highly important; the last several years, since the onset of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, have highlighted a weakness in the field: the need for highly specialized and complex methodology for sensitive virus detection, which also manifests as sacrifices in limits of detection made to achieve simple and rapid sensing. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has the potential to fill this gap, and two novel approaches to the development of a detection scheme are presented in this study. First, the physical entrapment of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) and additional virus-like particles through substrate design to localize virus analytes into SERS hotspots is explored. Then, the use of nonspecific linear polymers as affinity agents to facilitate polymer-enabled capture of the VSV for SERS detection is studied. Quantitative detection of the VSV is achieved down to 101 genetic copies per milliliter with an R2 of 0.987 using the optimized physical entrapment method. Physical entrapment of two more virus-like particles is demonstrated with electron microscopy, and distinctive SERS fingerprints are shown. This study shows great promise for the further exploration of label-free virus detection methods involving thoughtful substrate design and unconventional affinity agents.

Abstract
This article presents the results of the synthesis of Se NPs stabilized by a quaternary ammonium compound-catamine AB. Se NPs were obtained by chemical reduction in an aqueous medium. In the first stage of this study, the method of synthesis of Se NPs was optimized by a multifactorial experiment. The radius of the obtained samples was studied by dynamic light scattering, and the electrokinetic potential was studied using acoustic and electroacoustic spectrometry. Subsequently, the samples were studied by transmission electron microscopy, and the analysis of the data showed that a bimodal distribution is observed in negatively charged particles, where one fraction is represented by spheres with a diameter of 45 nm, and the second by 1 to 10 nm. In turn, positive Se NPs have a diameter of about 70 nm. In the next stage, the influence of the active acidity of the medium on the stability of Se NPs was studied. An analysis of the obtained data showed that both sols of Se NPs exhibit aggregative stability in the pH range from 2 to 6, while an increase in pH to an alkaline medium is accompanied by a loss of particle stability. Next, we studied the effect of ionic strength on the aggregative stability of Se NPs sols. It was found that negatively charged ions have a significant effect on the particle size of the positive sol of Se NPs, while the particle size of the negative sol is affected by positively charged ions.

Abstract
With the globalization of food and its complicated networking system, a wide range of food contaminants is introduced into the food system which may happen accidentally, intentionally, or naturally. This situation has made food safety a critical global concern nowadays and urged the need for effective technologies capable of dealing with the detection of food contaminants as efficiently as possible. Hence, Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been taken as one of the primary choices for this case, due to its extremely high sensitivity, rapidity, and fingerprinting interpretation capabilities which account for its competency to detect a molecule up to a single level. Here in this paper, we present a comprehensive review of various SERS-based novel approaches applied for direct and indirect detection of single and multiple chemical and microbial contaminants in food, food products as well as water. The aim of this paper is to arouse the interest of researchers by addressing recent SERS-based, novel achievements and developments related to the investigation of hazardous chemical and microbial contaminants in edible foods and water. The target chemical and microbial contaminants are antibiotics, pesticides, food adulterants, Toxins, bacteria, and viruses. In this paper, different aspects of SERS-based reports have been addressed including synthesis and use of various forms of SERS nanostructures for the detection of a specific analyte, the coupling of SERS with other analytical tools such as chromatographic methods, combining analyte capture and recognition strategies such as molecularly imprinted polymers and aptasensor as well as using multivariate statistical analyses such as principal component analysis (PCA)to distinguish between results. In addition, we also report some strengths and limitations of SERS as well as future viewpoints concerning its application in food safety.

Post-assay growth of gold nanoparticles as a tool for highly sensitive lateral flow immunoassay. Application to the detection of potato virus X. Mikrochim Acta 2018; 185:506. [PMID: 30328535 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-018-3052-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2018] [Accepted: 10/07/2018] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
This article demonstrates a new kind of a highly sensitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). It is based on the enlargement of the size of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) directly on the test strip after a conventional LFIA. Particle size enlargement is accomplished through the catalytic reduction of HAuCl4 in the presence of H2O2 and through the accumulation of additional gold on the surface of the GNPs. To attain maximal enhancement of the coloration of the zone in the test strip and to achieve a minimal background, the concentration of precursors, the pH value, and the incubation time were optimized. GNPs on the test strip are enlarged from 20 to 350 nm after a 1-min treatment at room temperature. The economically important and widespread phytopathogen potato virus X (PVX) was used as the target analyte. The use of the GNP enlargement method results in a 240-fold reduction in the limit of the detection of PVX, which can be as low as 17 pg·mL-1. The total duration of the assay, including virus extraction from the potato leaves, lateral flow, and the enhancement process, is only 12 min. The diagnostic efficiency of the technique was confirmed by its application to the analysis of potato leave samples. No false positives or false negatives were found. The technique does not depend on specific features of the target analyte, and it is conceivably applicable to numerous GNP-based LFIAs for important analytes. Graphical abstract An enlargement solution (containing HAuCl4 and H2O2) was dripped on the strip after common lateral flow immunoassay. Gold nanoparticles on the strip (20 nm) catalyze gold reduction and the formation of larger particles (up to 350 nm), resulting in a 240-fold lower detection limit within 1 min.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is capable of detecting a single molecule with high specificity and has become a promising technique for rapid chemical analysis of agricultural products and foods. With a deeper understanding of the SERS effect and advances in nanofabrication technology, SERS is now on the edge of going out of the laboratory and becoming a sophisticated analytical tool to fulfill various real-world tasks. This review focuses on the challenges that SERS has met in this progress, such as how to obtain a reliable SERS signal, improve the sensitivity and specificity in a complex sample matrix, develop simple and user-friendly practical sensing approach, reduce the running cost, etc. This review highlights the new thoughts on design and nanofabrication of SERS-active substrates for solving these challenges and introduces the recent advances of SERS applications in this area. We hope that our discussion will encourage more researches to address these challenges and eventually help to bring SERS technology out of the laboratory.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was used as an amplification tool in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). Potato virus Х (PVX) was selected as a target analyte because of its high economic importance. Two conjugates of gold nanoparticles were applied, one with mouse monoclonal antibody against PVX and one with ALP-labeled antibody against mouse IgG. They were immobilized to two fiberglass membranes on the test strip for use in LFIA. After exposure to the sample, a substrate for ALP (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate/nitro blue tetrazolium) was dropped on the test strip. The insoluble dark-violet diformazan produced by ALP precipitated on the membrane and significantly increased the color intensity of the control and test zones. The limit of detection (0.3 ng mL-1) was 27 times lower than that of conventional LFIA for both buffer and potato leaf extracts. The ALP-enhanced LFIA does not require additional preparation procedures or washing steps and may be used by nontrained persons in resource-limited conditions. The new method of enhancement is highly promising and may lead to application for routine LFIA in different areas. Graphical abstract Two gold nanoparticles (GNP) conjugates were used - the first with monoclonal antibodies (mAb) (GNP-mAb); the second - alkaline phosphatase-labeled antibody against mAb (GNP-anti-mAb-ALP). The immuno complexes are captured by the polyclonal antibodies (pAb) in the test zone. Addition of the substrate solution (BCIP/NBT) results in the accumulation of the insoluble colored product and in a significance increase in color intensity.
