Abstract
Point-of-care (POC) nanosensors with high screening efficiency show promise for user-friendly manipulation in the ever-increasing on-site analysis demand for illness diagnosis, environmental monitoring, and food safety. Currently, inspired by the merits of integrating advanced nanomaterials, molecular biology, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA)-based POC nanosensors have been devoted to satisfying the commercial demands in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and practicality. Herein, we examine the use of multidimensional enhanced LFIA in various fields over the past two decades, focusing on introducing advanced nanomaterials to improve the acquisition capability of small order of magnitude targets through engineering transformations and emphasizing interdomain fusion to collaboratively address the inherent challenges in current commercial applications, such as multiplexing, development of detectors for quantitative analysis, more practical on-site monitoring, and sensitivity enhancement. Specifically, this comprehensive review encompasses the latest advances in comprehending LFIA with an alternative signal transduction pattern, aiming to achieve rapid, ultrasensitive, and "sample-to-answer" available options with progressive applications for POC nanosensors. In summary, through the cross-collaboration development of disciplines, LFIA has the potential to break the barriers toward commercialization and achieve laboratory-level POC nanosensors, thus leading to the emergence of the next generation of LFIA.

Abstract
In recent years, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials have gained significant attention and have been developed for various applications in different fields including biomedical research, chemical analysis, optoelectronic devices, materials science, and nanotechnology. AIE is a unique luminescence phenomenon, and AIEgens are fluorescent moieties with relatively twisted structures that can overcome the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect. Additionally, AIEgens offer advantages such as non-washing properties, deep tissue penetration, minimal damage to biological structures, high signal-to-noise ratio, and excellent photostability. Fluorescent probes with AIE characteristics exhibit high sensitivity, short response time, simple operation, real-time detection capability, high selectivity, and excellent biocompatibility. As a result, they have been widely applied in cellular imaging, luminescent sensing, detection of physiological abnormalities in the human body, as well as early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. This review provides a comprehensive summary and discussion of the progress over the past four years regarding the detection of metal ions, small chemical molecules, biomacromolecules, microbes, and cells based on AIE materials, along with discussing their potential applications and future development prospects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Salmonella, a foodborne pathogen poses significant threats to food safety and human health. Immunochromatographic (ICTS) sensors have gained popularity in the field of food safety due to their convenience, speed, and cost-effectiveness. However, most existing ICTS sensors rely on antibody sandwich structures which are limited by their dependence on high-quality paired antibodies and restricted sensitivity. For the first time, we combined multi-line ICTS strips with fluorescent bacterial probes to develop a label-free multi-line immunochromatographic sensor capable of detecting broad-spectrum Salmonella. Salmonella was labeled with the aggregation-induced luminescence material TCBPE, resulting in its transformation into a green fluorescent probe. RESULTS Using this sensor, we successfully detected Salmonella typhimurium within the concentration range of 104-108 CFU/mL with a visual detection limit of 6.0 × 104 CFU/mL. Compared to single-line sensors, our multi-line sensor exhibited significantly improved fluorescence intensity resulting in enhanced detection sensitivity by 50 %. Furthermore, our developed multi-line ICTS sensor demonstrated successful detection of 18 different strains of Salmonella without any cross-reaction observed with 5 common foodborne pathogens tested. The applicability and reliability were validated using milk samples, cabbage juice samples as well and drinking water samples suggesting its potential for rapid and accurate detection of Salmonella in real-world scenarios across both the food industry and clinical settings. SIGNIFICANCE In this experiment, we developed a TCBPE-based multiline immunochromatographic sensor. Specifically, Salmonella was labeled with the aggregation-induced luminescence material TCBPE, resulting in its transformation into a green fluorescent probe. Through the multi-line analysis system, the detection sensitivity and accuracy of the sensor are improved. In brief, the sensor does not require complex antibody labeling and paired antibodies, and only one antibody is needed to complete the detection process.

Food Chem 2024; 450:139260. [PMID: 38626714 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/18/2024]
Abstract
High fluorescence intensity microspheres such as aggregation-induced emission fluorescence microspheres (AIEFM) have improved the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). The preparation of immune probes in LFIA usually adopts the chemical coupling strategy with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide for antibody coupling, which has the problems of low coupling efficiency, tedious coupling process, and poor repeatability. A biocompatible metal-phenolic network (MPN), which contains large amounts of phenols and galloyl groups, could easily, quickly, and stably couple with antibodies. Herein, we proposed a strategy based on MPN modification on ultrabright AIEFM surface as a novel label for the rapid detection of carbendazim. The limit of detection of AIEFM@MPN-LFIA was 0.019 ng/mL, which was 4.9 times lower than that of AIEFM-LFIA. In spiked samples, the average recoveries of AIEFM@MPN-LFIA ranged from 80% to 118% (coefficient of variation <13.45%). Therefore, AIEFM@MPN was a promising signal label that could improve the detection performance of LFIA.

Abstract
The traditional lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) with a single signal output mode may encounter challenges such as low sensitivity, poor detection range, and susceptibility to external interferences. These limitations hinder its ability to meet the growing demand for advanced LFIA. To address these issues, the rational development of multifunctional labels for multimodal LFIA emerges as a promising strategy. Herein, this study reports a multimodal LFIA using "four-in-one" multifunctional dandelion-like gold@platinum nanoparticles (MDGP). The inherent properties of MDGP, such as the broad absorption spectrum, porous dandelion-like nanostructure, and bimetallic composition with gold and platinum, endow them with capacities in dual spectral-overlapped fluorescence quenching, optical readout, catalytic activity, and photothermal effect. Benefiting from their multifunctional properties, the MDGP-LFIA enables multimodal outputs including fluorescent, colorimetric, and photothermal signals. This multimodal MDGP-LFIA allows for the detection of acetamiprid at a range of 0.01-50 ng mL-1, with the lowest qualitative and quantitative detection results of 0.5 and 0.008 ng mL-1, respectively, significantly better than the traditional gold nanoparticles-based LFIA. The diversity, complementarity, and synergistic effect of integrated output signals in this multimodal MDGP-LFIA improve the flexibility, practicability, and accuracy of detection, holding great promise as a point-of-care testing platform in versatile application scenarios.

Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination in food has attracted worldwide attention. The sensitive detection of AFB1 is vital for ensuring food quality and safety. This study developed an ultrasensitive signal-enhanced lateral flow immunosensor (LFIS) based on the functionalized zirconium metal-organic framework (MOF) of a UiO linker enriched with abundant aggregation-induced emission luminogen (UiOL@AIEgens) probes for the rapid dual-modal point-of-care (POC) determination of AFB1. Using UiO MOFs with numerous active sites as the carrier facilitated abundant AIEgens enrichment on the surface. After coupling with enough anti-AFB1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), the green-emissive UiOL@AIEgens-mAbs probes with high specificity and remarkably-enhanced fluorescence responses were obtained to competitively capture target AFB1 in the standard or sample solution and AFB1 antigen immobilized on the test (T) line of the POC LFIS. Under optimum conditions, the LFIS was capable of visual qualitative and smartphone-assisted dual-modal determination of target AFB1 within 7 min. Detection occurred in a range of 0.01-5 ng/mL at an ultra-low detection limit of 0.003 ng/mL, which was 300- and 600-fold lower than traditional immunoassays and the maximum limit set by the European Union, respectively. Moreover, the feasibility and robustness of the LFIS platform were assessed by detecting AFB1 in maize and lotus seed samples with average recoveries of 94.3-109.0%. The developed UiOL@AIEgens-based POC LFIS can be used for ultrasensitive, reliable, on-site detection in food. This study provides a new method for the real-time monitoring of AFB1 and other harmful contaminants in food and more complex matrices.

Abstract
In traditional CRISPR-based biosensors, the cleavage-induced signal generation is insufficient because only a signals is generated at a CRISPR-induced cleavage. Herein, we developed an improved CRISPR/Cas12a-based biosensor with an enlarged signal generation which integrated the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and low-background Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) signal output mode. The HCR with nucleic acid self-assembly capability was used as a signal carrier to load more signaling molecules. To get the best signal amplification, three different fluorescence signal output modes (fluorescence recovery, FRET and low-background FRET) generated by two fluoresceins, FAM and Cy5, were fully investigated and compared. The results indicated that the low-background FRET signal output mode with the strictest signal generation conditions yielded the highest signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) (19.17) and the most obvious fluorescence color change (from red to yellow). In optimal conditions, the proposed biosensor was successfully applied for Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) detection with 6 h (including 4 h for sample pre-treatment) from the initial target processing to the final detection result. The qualitative sensitivity, reliant on color changes, was 103 CFU/mL. The quantitative sensitivity, calculated by the fluorescence value, were 1.62 × 101 CFU/mL, 3.72 × 102 CFU/mL, and 8.71 × 102 CFU/mL in buffer solution, S. Typhimurium-spiked milk samples, and S.Typhimurium-spiked chicken samples, respectively. The excellent detection performance of the proposed biosensor endowed its great application potential in food and environment safety monitoring.

Abstract
Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 is a common foodborne pathogen which can cause serious harm. It is particularly important to establish a simple and portable method to achieve on-site pathogen detection. In this study, a capture-antibody-independent lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) was constructed based on Cu2-xSe nanocrystals (Cu2-xSe NCs) for rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7. Cu2-xSe NCs can not only be regarded as the "nano-antibody" for the recognition of E. coli O157:H7 through electrostatic adsorption, but also as nanozymes that show good peroxidase-like catalytic activity. The formed compound of E. coli O157:H7 and Cu2-xSe NCs would be captured by a detection antibody on the T line due to the specific recognition of the antibody and E. coli O157:H7. Then, Cu2-xSe NCs could catalyze the oxidation of TMB by H2O2 to generate oxTMB, thereby generating blue bands. Meanwhile, we developed a mobile app for rapid data analysis. Under the optimal reaction conditions, E. coli O157:H7 could be detected within 70 min. The detection limit of this method was 2.65 × 105 CFU mL-1 with good specificity and stability. Additionally, it could achieve on-site rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7 in environmental water samples, providing a promising biosensor for portable pathogen detection.

Abstract
Fluorescent lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) systems are versatile tools for sensitive and quantitative detection of disease markers at the point of care. However, traditional fluorescent nanoparticle-based lateral flow immunoassays are not visible under room light, necessitate an additional fluorescent reader, and lack flexibility for different application scenarios. Herein, we report a dual-readout LFA system for the rapid and sensitive detection of C-reactive protein (CRP) in clinical samples. The system relied on the aggregation-induced emission nanobeads (AIENBs) encapsulated with red AIE luminogen, which possesses both highly fluorescent and colorimetric properties. The AIENB-based LFA in the naked-eye mode was able to qualitatively detect CRP levels as low as 8.0 mg/L, while in the fluorescent mode, it was able to quantitatively measure high-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) with a limit of detection of 0.16 mg/L. The AIENB-based LFA system also showed a good correlation with the clinically used immunoturbidimetric method for CRP and hs-CRP detection in human plasma. This dual-modal AIENB-based LFA system offers the convenience of colorimetric testing and highly sensitive and quantitative detection of disease biomarkers and medical diagnostics in various scenarios.

Food Chem 2023; 429:136816. [PMID: 37459713 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.136816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023]
Abstract
Antibodies and labels were typically non-oriented conjugated in conventional immunochromatographic assays (ICAs). In this work, a C-terminal cysteine-tagged recombinant protein A (rPA) was conjugated in an oriented manner onto aggregation-induced emission fluorescence microsphere (AIEFM). The Fc fragment of anti-enrofloxacin monoclonal antibody (anti-ENR mAb) was then conjugated onto the rPA. The resulting oriented mAb-AIEFM probe was used in an ENR-ICA for the rapid detection of ENR, a widely abused animal drug. The ENR-ICA with the oriented probe saved 66.7% of anti-ENR mAb and 25% of ENR-bovine serum albumin, and had a limit of detection of 0.035 ng/mL, compared with 0.079 ng/mL for the non-oriented probe. The corresponding linear ranges of the ENR-ICA based on the oriented and non-oriented probes were 0.25-10 ng/mL and 0.1-2.5 ng/mL, respectively. This novel ICA based on the oriented probe has the potential to be used for sensitive and rapid detection in food safety.

Abstract
Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is highly toxic, widely distributed, and difficult to monitor, posing a serious threat to human health. Therefore, a highly sensitive, rapid, convenient, and low-cost detection method must be urgently established. In this study, a triple strategy-enhanced immunochromatographic assay (ICA) was developed to satisfy these detection requirements. First, a turn-on signal output mode of the fluorescence quenching ICA substituted the turn-off mode of the traditional ICA for sensitive response to trace AFM1, with the limit of detection (LOD) reduced by approximately 4.9-fold. Then, a novel Au and polydopamine (PDA) cogrowth chrysanthemum-like blackbody was prepared as the quenching probe to reduce the background signal. This probe combined the excellent properties of Au nanoparticles with PDA. Thus, its fluorescence quenching constant was higher than that of single Au and PDA nanoparticles by 25.8- and 4.9-fold, respectively. Furthermore, an aggregation-induced emission fluorescence microsphere with a 5.7-fold higher relative quantum yield than a commercial fluorescence microsphere was selected as the signal output carrier to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. The integration of the above triple strategies established a 53.4-fold sensitivity-enhanced fluorescence quenching ICA (LOD = 0.9 pg/mL) for detecting AFM1 in milk, providing a strong technical guarantee for the safety monitoring of milk products.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 poses a threat to humans. Traditional ELISA is not a sensitive method for the detection of E. coli O157:H7. Here, an efficient method was designed for improving the load capacity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) with streptavidin scaffolded DNA tetrad (SS-DNAt). With more ALP, more ascorbic acid 2-phosphate was catalyzed to ascorbic acid that was used to synthesize fluorescence poly adenine-thymine-templated copper nanoclusters. Based on SS-DNAt, fluorescence ELISA was successfully proposed for improving the sensitivity for detection of E. coli O157:H7 in milk samples. The method showed a linear range of 104 to 106 cfu/mL. The limit of detection of fluorescence ELISA was 3.75 × 103 cfu/mL and 6.16-fold better than that of traditional ELISA. The recovery of the fluorescence ELISA was 86.7 to 93.6% with the coefficient of variation of 5.6 to 10.5% in milk. This method could be used to detect hazardous material in food.

Abstract
Aggregates often exhibit modified or completely new properties compared with their molecular elements, making them an extraordinarily advantageous form of materials. The fluorescence signal change characteristics resulting from molecular aggregation endow aggregates with high sensitivity and broad applicability. In molecular aggregates, the photoluminescence properties at the molecular level can be annihilated or elevated, leading to aggregation-causing quenching (ACQ) or aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effects. This change in photoluminescence properties can be intelligently introduced in food hazard detection. Recognition units can combine with the aggregate-based sensor by joining the aggregation process, endowing the sensor with the high specificity of analytes (such as mycotoxins, pathogens, and complex organic molecules). In this review, aggregation mechanisms, structural characteristics of fluorescent materials (including ACQ/AIE-activated), and their applications in food hazard detection (with/without recognition units) are summarized. Because the design of aggregate-based sensors may be influenced by the properties of their components, the sensing mechanisms of different fluorescent materials were described separately. Details of fluorescent materials, including conventional organic dyes, carbon nanomaterials, quantum dots, polymers and polymer-based nanostructures and metal nanoclusters, and recognition units, such as aptamer, antibody, molecular imprinting, and host-guest recognition, are discussed. In addition, future trends of developing aggregate-based fluorescence sensing technology in monitoring food hazards are also proposed.

Abstract
Herein, we report a novel aggregation-induced emission nanoparticles (AIENPs)-based immunochromatography assay (ICA) platform to detect ochratoxin A (OTA) using orange-yellow-emitting AIENPs as fluorescent nanoprobes. Immunochromatographic strip is used for the quantitative detection of OTA in crop matrix using AIENPs coupled with anti-OTA ascites. Under optimal conditions, AIENPs-ICA exhibits stronger signal output capacity and higher sensitivity than traditional gold nanoparticles-based ICA. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration is as low as 0.149 ng mL-1, and the limit detection is 0.042 ng mL-1 at 10 % competitive inhibition concentration. The average recovery of AIENPs-ICA ranges from 82.60 % to 113.14 % with the coefficient of variation ranging from 1.26 % to 11.57 %, proving the proposed method possesses good reliability and reproducibility. Moreover, the developed AIENPs-ICA exhibits negligible cross-reactions with other mycotoxins. We believe the presented AIENPs-ICA platform holds promising potential as a powerful tool for on-site detection of OTA and other molecules detection in food samples.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) are promising candidates for bacterial imaging and detection because they can "Light-Up" pathogenic bacteria without complicated labeling or washing steps. However, there have been few in-depth analyses of the intrinsic mechanism underlying their utility as fluorescence probes for targeting bacteria. Therefore, using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, we investigated the mechanism of their bacterial "Light-Up" behavior with N,N-diphenyl-4-(7-(pyridin-4-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-yl) aniline functionalized with 1-bromoethane (TBP-1). We propose that the triphenylamine motif of TBP-1, rather than the positively charged pyridine group, first contacts the cell membrane. After TBP-1 completely inserts into the cell membrane, the hydrophobic triphenylamine motif localizes in the hydrophobic core of the cell membrane, restricting the molecular variation of TBP-1, which induces the fluorescent "turn-on" and bacterial "Light-Up." On this basis, we established a heterogeneous lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for the detection of foodborne pathogens. The LFIA system showed improved sensitivity with a limit of detection as low as 103 CFU mL-1 and strong specificity. Our protocol opened an effective shortcut to the design of more efficient AIEgens and novel AIEgens-based immunoassays.

Abstract
Highly luminescent nanospheres have been demonstrated in enhancing the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) due to their loading numerous luminescent dyes. However, the photoluminescence intensities of existing luminescent nanospheres are limited due to the aggregation-caused quenching effect. Herein, highly luminescent aggregation-induced emission luminogens embedded nanospheres (AIENPs) with red emission were introduced as signal amplification probes of LFIA for quantitative detection of zearalenone (ZEN). Optical properties of red-emitted AIENPs were compared with time-resolved dye-embedded nanoparticles (TRNPs). Results showed that red-emitted AIENPs have stronger photoluminescence intensity on the nitrocellulose membrane and superior environmental tolerance. Additionally, we benchmarked the performance of AIENP-LFIA against TRNP-LFIA using the same set of antibodies, materials, and strip readers. Results showed that AIENP-LFIA exhibits good dynamic linearity with the ZEN concentration from 0.195 to 6.25 ng/mL, with half competitive inhibitory concentration (IC50) and detection of limit (LOD) at 0.78 and 0.11 ng/mL, respectively. The IC50 and LOD are 2.07- and 2.36-fold lower than those of TRNP-LFIA. Encouragingly, the precision, accuracy, specificity, practicality, and reliability of this AIENP-LFIA for ZEN quantitation were further characterized. The results verified that the AIENP-LFIA has good practicability for the rapid, sensitive, specific, and accurate quantitative detection of ZEN in corn samples.

Abstract
A novel colorimetric and fluorescent dual-mode sensing system based on molybdophosphoric heteropoly acid (PMA) and fluorescent microspheres (FMs) was established for monitoring the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). In the presence of ALP, L-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AAP) could be hydrolyzed catalytically to ascorbic acid (AA), which could reduce PMA to phosphorus molybdenum blue (PMB), accompanied by the generation of colorimetric signals depending on the level of ALP. Meanwhile, the fluorescence of FMs was quenched markedly by the PMB produced due to the inner-filter effect, which constituted the response mechanism for the dual-mode sensing systems of ALP. On this basis, a PMA-FMs based dual-mode sensing system was used for the detection of ALP, which not only possessed remarkable sensitivity, with a limit of detection of 0.27 U L-1 and 0.11 U L-1, but also exhibited good analytical performance in biological samples with satisfactory results. Moreover, a simple and portable test kit for the visual detection of ALP in real serum samples was fabricated utilizing a smartphone with image-recognition and data-processing capabilities as a visual-detection platform.

Abstract
Herein, novel multifunctional magnetic prussian blue nanoenzymes (MPBNs) and colloidal gold (CG) were synthesized and used to develop two kinds of lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) for the detection of 38 β-agonists. Since MPBNs has a unique three-in-one function of colorimetric magnetic catalytic activities, the signal intensity and coupling ratio are 2 and 8-fold higher than that of the CG. The cut-off values of the CG-LFIA and MPBNs-LFIA for swine urine and pork are 5/5 and 0.3/0.5 μg/kg, the limits of detection are 0.19/0.29 and 0.02/0.03 μg/kg, respectively. The sensitivity of MPBNs-LFIA is 10-fold higher than that of CG-LFIA, and up to 200-fold higher than that of the reported LFIAs. The recoveries of the LFIAs are 80.0%-116.7%, with coefficients of variation of 1.4%-14.3%. Our study proved that the MPBNs have more advantages than CG, and can offer a promising signal label for ultrasensitive immunoassay techniques.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) are attracting extensive research attention in the biosensor fields. Herein, we report a new polyethyleneimine (PEI)-induced strategy for enhancing luminescence of TCBPE (an AIEgen) to promote its development in biosensor. The copolymer dots (TCBPE-PEI) with high quantum yield (39.7%) and outstanding stability were synthesized via a one-pot method. The fluorescence enhancement mechanism based on the PEI strategy originated from the restriction of intramolecular motions of TCBPEs and the form of donor-acceptor structures to decrease the inherent energy bandgap. Benefiting from chelating property of TCBPE-PEI by Cu2+, a fluorescence-quenching sensor for Cu2+ detection was developed based on the fluorescence quenching of the electron transfer effect. Especially, a good linear range of 10-250 nM with a low limit of detection 1.1 nM was achieved, and it was further applied in samples successfully. The current work provides a novel approach to fabricate AIEgen biosensors and shows great potential in Cu2+ detection.

Abstract
Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) has presented enormous difficulties in dairy food safety and the sensitive detection of SEA provides opportunities for effective food safety controls and staphylococcal food poisoning tracebacks. Herein, a novel aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-based sandwich lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) was introduced to detect SEA by using red-emissive AIE nanoparticles (AIENPs) as the fluorescent nanoprobe. The nanoprobe was constructed by directly immobilising antibodies on boronate-tagged AIENPs (PBA-AIENPs) via a boronate affinity reaction, which exhibited a high SEA-specific affinity and remarkable fluorescent performance. Under optimal conditions, the ultrasensitive detection of SEA in pasteurised milk was achieved within 20 min with a limit of detection of 0.04 ng mL-1. The average recoveries of the PBA-AIENP-LFIA ranged from 91.3% to 117.6% and the coefficient of variation was below 15%. It was also demonstrated that the PBA-AIENP-LFIA had an excellent selectivity against other SE serotypes. Taking advantage of the excellent sensitivity of this approach, real chicken and salad samples were further analysed, with a high versatility and accuracy. The proposed PBA-AIENP-LFIA platform shows promise as a potent tool for the identification of additional compounds in food samples as well as an ideal test method for on-site detections.

Abstract
Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based on fluorescent microbeads has attracted much attention for its use in rapid and accurate food safety monitoring. However, conventional fluorescent microbeads are limited by the aggregation-caused quenching effect of the loaded fluorophores, thus resulting in low signal intensity and insufficient sensitivity of fluorescent LFIA. In this study, a green-emitting fluorophore with an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristic was encapsulated in polymer nanoparticles via an emulsification technique to form ultrabright fluorescent microbeads (denoted as AIEMBs). The prepared AIEMBs were then applied in a competitive LFIA (AIE-LFIA) as signal reporters for the rapid and highly sensitive screening of fumonisin B1 (FB1) in real corn samples. High sensitivity with a detection limit of 0.024 ng/mL for FB1 was achieved by the developed AIE-LFIA. Excellent selectivity, good accuracy, and high reliability of the AIE-LFIA were demonstrated, indicating a promising platform for FB1 screening.

Abstract
Ultrabright green-emissive AIE nanoparticles (AIENPs) were used as signal-amplification probes to enhance the detectability of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). The detection performances of the green-emissive AIENP probes in both sandwich and competitive LFIA formats were systematically evaluated. Benefiting from its remarkable fluorescent brightness, the developed AIENP-LFIA showed versatile applicability for the detection of small molecules and macromolecules by using ochratoxin A (OTA) and procalcitonin (PCT) as model analytes, respectively. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limits (LODs) of the fabricated AIENP-LFIA for OTA and PCT were 0.043 ng mL-1 and 0.019 ng mL-1, respectively. These LOD values are significantly lower than those of conventional LFIA methods using gold nanoparticles as signal reporters. In addition, we demonstrated the practical application potential of AIENP-LFIA for the detection of OTA in real maize samples and PCT in real serum samples. These results indicated that the ultrabright green-emissive AIENPs were promising as signal output materials for building high-performance LFIA platform and broadening the application scenarios of LFIA.

Abstract
A multicolor immunochromatographic assay platform based on quantum dot nanobeads (QBs) for the rapid and simultaneous detection of nitrofuran metabolites in different aquatic products is documented. These metabolites include 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ), 1-aminohydantoin (AHD), semicarbazide (SEM), and 3-amino-5-morpholino-methyl-1,3-oxazolidinone (AMOZ). QBs with emission colors of red, yellow, green, and orange were employed and functionalized with the corresponding antibodies to each analyte to develop a multicolor channel. The visual detection limits (cutoff values) of our method for AOZ, AHD, SEM, and AMOZ reached up to 50 ng/mL, which were 2, 20, 20, and 20 times lower than those of traditional colloidal gold test strips, respectively. The test strip is capable of detection within 10 min in real samples while still achieving good stability and specificity. These results demonstrate that the developed multicolor immunochromatographic assay platform is a promising technique for multiplex, highly sensitive, and on-site detection of nitrofuran metabolites.

Abstract
Luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIEgens) properties have numerous broad applications in fields of chemical and biological analyses due to their exceptional photostability, excellent signal reliability, high quantum yield, and large Stokes' shift. In particular, AIEgens also bring new blood for immunoassay. Since publication of the first 2004 paper, AIEgens-based immunoassays have received significant attention because of their high sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and reliability. However, until now, there have been no comprehensive literature reviews focused on the evolving field of AIEgens-based immunoassays. Thus, we have extensively reviewed AIEgens-based immunoassays from their basic working principles to specific applications. We focus on several fundamental elements of AIEgens-based immunoassays, including the typical structures of AIEgens, emission mechanism of AIEgens probes, function of AIEgens in immunoassays, and platform of AIEgens-based immunoassays. Then, the representative applications of AIEgens-based immunoassays in food safety, medical diagnostics, and environmental monitoring are explored. Thus, proposals on how to further improve the AIEgens-based immunoassay performance are also discussed, as well as future challenges and perspectives, aiming to provide brief and valid guidelines for choosing suitable AIEgens-based immunoassays according to specific application requirements.

Abstract
Florfenicol (FF), used popularly in prevention and treatment of virus infections in livestock and poultry, has widely been found in eggs and harmful to human health. In this work, a sensitive and quantitative on-site detecting solution, monoclonal antibody-based carboxylated fluorescent microsphere immunochromatographic test strip assay (FM-ICTS), is design and applied for FF detection. The proposed method can sensitively detect FF in low detection limit of 0.030 ng/g and quantitatively measure its concentration from 0.1 ng/mL to 8.1 ng/mL (R2 = 0.9991) with high repeatability (CV<8.0 %). In addition, the established FM-ICTS method exhibited high measurement accuracy in FF samples as compared with HPLC-MS analysis and demonstrated satisfied recoveries (99.1-101.3 %). More importantly, the quantitative FF test strip demonstrate ultra-high stability, which presents approximately equivalent detection ability to the fresh one after stored at 4 °C for more than one year or stored at 37 °C for 60 days. Therefore, the proposed method is a promising solution for rapidly and sensitively quantitative determination of FF in eggs.

Abstract
The pandemic of highly contagious diseases has put forward urgent requirements for high sensitivity and adaptive capacity of point-of-care testing (POCT). Herein, for the first time, we report an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) dye-energized light-initiated afterglow nanoprobes (named LiAGNPs), implemented onto a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) test strip, for diagnosis of two highly contagious diseases, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as model validation. The primary working mechanism relies on the cyclically generated singlet oxygen (1O2)-triggered time-resolved luminescent signals of LiAGNPs in which AIE dyes (TTMN) and chemiluminescent substrates (SO) are loaded. The designed LiAGNPs were found 2-fold and 32-fold sensitive than the currently used Eu(III)-based time-resolved fluorescent nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), respectively. In addition, the extra optical behaviors of nude color and fluorescence of LiAGNPs enable the LFIA platform with the capability of the naked eye and fluorescent detection to satisfy the applications under varying scenarios. In short, the versatile LiAGNPs have great potential as a novel time-resolved reporter in enhancing detection sensitivity and application flexibility with LFIA platform for rapid but sensitive infectious disease diagnostics.

[PMID: 35566334 PMCID: PMC9103447 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27092984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2022] [Revised: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Conventional fluorescent dyes have the property of decreasing fluorescence due to aggregation-caused quenching effects at high concentrations, whereas aggregation-induced emission dyes have the property of increasing fluorescence as they aggregate with each other. In this study, diketopyrrolopyrrole-based long-wavelength aggregation-induced emission dyes were used to prepare biocompatible nanoparticles suitable for bioimaging. Aggregation-induced emission nanoparticles with the best morphology and photoluminescence intensity were obtained through a fast, simple preparation method using an ultrasonicator. The optimally prepared nanoparticles from 3,6-bis(4-((E)-4-(bis(40-(1,2,2-triphenylvinyl)-[1,10-biphenyl]-4-yl)amino)styryl)phenyl)-2,5-dihexyl-2,5-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione (DP-R2) with two functional groups having aggregation-induced emission properties and additional donating groups at the end of the triphenylamine groups were considered to have the greatest potential as a fluorescent probe for bioimaging. Furthermore, it was found that the tendency for aggregation-induced emission, which was apparent for the dye itself, became much more marked after the dyes were incorporated within nanoparticles. While the photoluminescence intensities of the dyes were observed to decrease rapidly over time, the prepared nanoparticles encapsulated within the biocompatible polymers maintained their initial optical properties very well. Lastly, when the cell viability test was conducted, excellent biocompatibility was demonstrated for each of the prepared nanoparticles.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic that began in March 2020 continues in many countries. The ongoing pandemic makes early diagnosis a crucial part of efforts to prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2 infections. As such, the development of a rapid, reliable, and low-cost technique with increased sensitivity for detection of SARS-CoV-2 is an important priority of the scientific community. At present, nucleic acid-based techniques are primarily used as the reference approach for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, in several cases, false positive results have been observed with these techniques. Due to the drawbacks associated with existing techniques, the development of new techniques for the diagnosis of COVID-19 is an important research activity. We provide an overview of novel diagnostic methods for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis that integrate photonic technology with artificial intelligence. Recent developments in emerging diagnostic techniques based on the principles of advanced molecular spectroscopy and microscopy are considered.

Abstract
Sandwich lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) based on paired antibodies are the most frequently used platform for food-borne pathogen detection. Although label-free strategies are used in LFIAs to avoid the utilization of paired antibodies, challenges of probe design and detection reliability still remain. Here, we report a new label-free and dual-readout LFIA (LD-LFIA) mediated by a 'Three-To-One' multi-functional nanocomposite with a unique combination of magnetic-adhesion-color-nanozyme properties. The strengths of the new designed nanocomposite are: (i) the Fe3O4 magnetic core simplifies the separation processes; (ii) surface adherent polydopamine (PDA) films exhibit a strong adhesion to pathogenic bacteria and provide colorimetric detection signal; and (iii) the deposited platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) can function as nanozymes to generate an extra catalytic signal for constructing a dual-readout mode to improve the detection accuracy. The resulting Fe3O4@PDA@Pt nanocomposite-based LD-LFIA can detect highly pathogenic Escherichia coli O157:H7 with limits of detection of 102 and 10 CFU mL-1 for colorimetric and catalytic quantitative analyses, respectively. Systematic results also reveal that the proposed method exhibited high specificity and applicability for drinking water and chicken samples, serving as a promising tool for real bacterial sample testing. The multi-functional Fe3O4@PDA@Pt nanocomposite-based LD-LFIA can provide new ideas for designing new multi-functional probes for improving detection performance of conventional label-free LFIA and constructing more accurate and sensitive detection systems.

Lateral flow immunoassay based on dual spectral-overlapped fluorescence quenching of polydopamine nanospheres for sensitive detection of sulfamethazine.

Abstract
Herein, we propose a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based on the dual spectral-overlapped fluorescence quenching of polydopamine nanospheres (PDANs) caused by the inner filter effect to sensitively detect sulfamethazine (SMZ). The fluorescence quenching LFIA device consists of four parts: absorbent pad, polyvinyl chloride pad, sample pad, and nitrocellulose membrane. Compared with traditional quenchers such as gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with single spectral-overlapped quenching ability, PDANs can quench the excitation light and emission light of three fluorescence donors (aggregation-induced emission fluorescent microsphere, AIEFM; fluorescent microsphere, FM; and quantum dot bead, QB). The fluorescence intensity changes (ΔF) are numerically larger for PDANs-LFIA (ΔFAIEFM = 2315, ΔFFM = 979, ΔFQB = 910) than those for AuNPs-LFIA (ΔFAIEFM = 1722, ΔFFM = 833, ΔFQB =;520). AIEFM-based PDANs-LFIA exhibits a large ΔF (2315) in response to the changes in the SMZ concentration, and produces a high signal-to-noise ratio. The limit of detection (LOD) and visual LOD of LFIA based on PDANs quenching AIEFM for the detection of SMZ in chicken are 0.043 and 0.5 ng/mL, respectively. The results confirm that the proposed method can be used for the detection of hazardous materials in practical applications.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a type of hazardous bacteria in the field of food safety. A sensitive and effective method is urgently needed to detect it, avoiding enormous harm for the human health. In this study, we synthesized stable Ag+-doped gold nanoclusters (Ag-AuNC) with a fluorescence intensity 4.8 times stronger than that of AuNC. It was further demonstrated that Ag0 existing in the AuNC core and a fraction of Ag+ anchored on the AuNC shell eliminated the surface defects and improved the luminescent properties of AuNC. A combination of I2 and I- was used to quench fluorescence-enhanced Ag-AuNC, which was first applied in ELISA for detecting E. coli O157:H7 to improve the sensitivity. In the presence of E. coli O157:H7, the biotinylated anti-E. coli O157:H7 mAb and streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase would be immobilized and catalyze l-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate sesquimagnesium salt hydrate to produce ascorbic acid. After addition of KIO3, I2/I- were generated. The I2 could trigger oxidative etching of Ag-AuNC and I- could combine with Ag+ to decrease the Ag+ concentration of Ag-AuNC, which resulted in fluorescence quenching of Ag-AuNC. Under optimal conditions, the linear range of I2/I--mediated fluorescence quenching of Ag-AuNC-based immunoassay for detecting E. coli O157:H7 was 3.3 × 103 to 106 cfu/mL, with a detection limit of 9.2 × 102 cfu/mL, 10.7-fold lower than that of the traditional ELISA. The proposed immunoassay exhibits excellent sensitivity, specificity, recovery, and accuracy, which is useful for quantitative detection of E. coli O157:H7 in food safety.

Abstract
In this work, a sensitive and quantitative immunochromatographic assay (ICA) detection method for avian influenza viruses (AIVs) of the H7 hemagglutinin (HA) antigen was established based on highly chromatic red silica nanoparticles (SiNPs). It can detect two H7 subtypes of influenza viruses, H7N2 and H7N9. The highly chromatic red SiNPs were prepared by adsorbing C.I. Direct Red 224 on the surface of the SiNPs for multiple times using the layer by layer (LbL) self-assembly method under the electrostatic action of ethylene imine polymer (PEI) and poly(sodium-p-styrenesulfonate) (PSS). The highly chromatic red silica nanoparticles modified with anti-H7 HA mAb1 were used as immunodetection probes. The accumulated highly chromatic red SiNPs on the T-line can be observed by the naked eye to qualitatively detect the H7 HA antigen. The quantitative analysis is carried out by using a camera and Image J software. Within the range of 0.1-10 ng mL-1, the linear equation between the H7 HA antigen concentration and the peak area of the T-line gray value was y = 868.9722 + 435.4836X (R2 = 0.9716), and the limit of detection (LOD) of this method was 0.08 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). The highly chromatic red SiNP based ICA for the detection of H7 HA has no cross activity with other subtypes of influenza viruses. This method of combining highly chromatic colored markers with ICA has great potential in practical applications for the rapid and quantitative detection of other types of AIVs.

Abstract
The long-term pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) requires sensitive and accurate diagnostic assays to detect severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus and SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in infected individuals. Currently, RNA of SARS-CoV-2 virus is mainly detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)-based nucleic acid assays, while SARS-CoV-2 antigen and antibody are identified by immunological assays. Both nucleic acid assays and immunological assays rely on the luminescence signals of specific luminescence probes for qualitative and quantitative detection. The exploration of novel luminescence probes will play a crucial role in improving the detection sensitivity of the assays. As innate probes, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens (AIEgens) exhibit negligible luminescence in the free state but enhanced luminescence in the aggregated or restricted states. Moreover, AIEgen-based nanoparticles (AIE dots) offer efficient luminescence, good biocompatibility and water solubility, and superior photostability. Both AIEgens and AIE dots have been widely used for high-performance detection of biomolecules and small molecules, chemical/biological imaging, and medical therapeutics. In this review, the availability of AIEgens and AIE dots in nucleic acid assays and immunological assays are enumerated and discussed. By building a bridge between AIE materials and COVID-19, we hope to inspire researchers to use AIE materials as a powerful weapon against COVID-19.

Abstract
Immunochromatographic assay (ICA) is widely applied in various fields. However, severe matrix interference and weak signal output present major challenges in achieving accurate and ultrasensitive detection in ICA. Here, a polydopamine (PDA)-mediated magnetic bimetallic nanozyme (Fe3O4@PDA@Pd/Pt) with peroxidase-like activity was synthesized and used as a probe in ICA. The magnetic property of Fe3O4@PDA@Pd/Pt enabled effective magnetic enrichment of targets, thereby reducing the matrix interference in the sample. PDA coating on the magnetic bimetallic nanozyme was employed as a mediator and a stabilizer. It improved the catalytic ability and stability of the magnetic bimetallic nanozyme by providing more coordination sites for Pd/Pt growth and functional groups (-NH and -OH). In addition, the Pd/Pt bimetallic synergistic effect could further enhance the catalytic ability of the nanozyme. A method was developed by integrating Fe3O4, PDA, and Pd/Pt into Fe3O4@PDA@Pd/Pt as a probe in ICA. With the proposed method, human chorionic gonadotropin and Escherichia coli O157:H7 were successfully detected to be as low as 0.0094 mIU/mL in human blood serum and 9 × 101 CFU/mL in the milk sample, respectively. This method may be readily adapted for accurate and ultrasensitive detection of other biomolecules in various fields.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) is a dangerous foodborne pathogen, mainly found in beef, milk, fruits, and their products, causing harm to human health or even death. Therefore, the detection of E. coli O157:H7 in food is particularly important. In this paper, we report a lateral flow immunoassay strip (LFIS) based on aggregation-induced emission (AIE) material labeling antigen as a fluorescent probe for the rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7. The detection sensitivity of the strip is 105 CFU/mL, which is 10 times higher than that of the colloidal gold test strip. This method has good specificity and stability and can be used to detect about 250 CFU of E. coli O157:H7 successfully in 25 g or 25 mL of beef, jelly, and milk. AIE-LFIS might be valuable in monitoring food pathogens for rapid detection.

[PMID: 32823493 PMCID: PMC7471973 DOI: 10.3390/s20164521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Revised: 08/03/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Fluorescence immunochromatographic assay (FICA) is a rapid immunoassay technique that has the characteristics of high precision and sensitivity. Although image FICA strip readers have the advantages of high portability and easy operation, the use of high-precision complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensors leads to an increase in overall cost. Considering the popularity of CMOS image sensors in smartphones and their powerful processing functions, this work developed a smartphone-based FICA strip reader. An optical module suitable for the test strips with different fluorescent markers was designed by replacing the excitation light source and the light filter. An android smartphone was used for image acquisition and image denoising. Then, the test and control lines of the test strip image were recognized by the sliding window algorithm. Finally, the characteristic value of the strip image was calculated. A linear detection range from 10 to 5000 mIU/mL (R2 = 0.95) was obtained for human chorionic gonadotrophin with the maximum relative error less than 9.41%, and a linear detection range from 5 to 4000 pg/mL (R2 = 0.99) was obtained for aflatoxin B1, with the maximum relative error less than 12.71%. Therefore, the smartphone-based FICA strip reader had high portability, versatility, and accuracy.

Prussian blue nanoparticles with peroxidase-mimicking properties in a dual immunoassays for glycocholic acid. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2020; 187:113317. [PMID: 32416340 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2020.113317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2019] [Revised: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 04/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Prussian Blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) were utilized in a lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) and in an indirect competitive nanozyme-linked immunosorbent assay (icELISA), respectively, for their intense blue color and peroxidase (POx) -like activity. The PBNPs with good POx-like activity was linked to the antibody. Under the optimal parameters, both the PBNP-icELISA and PBNP-LFA perform very well. The icELISA has an IC50 value of 190 ng/mL, the working range extends from 29 to 1200 ng/mL, and the limit of detection is 22 ng/mL. The visual cut-off limit is 10 ng/mL. The dual immunoassay was used to quantify glycocholic acid in spiked human urine. Excellent recoveries and correlation between the two methods were observed.
