[PMID: 39122284 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342986] [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: 06/07/2024] [Revised: 07/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the serious issue of ofloxacin (OFL) abuse, there is an increasingly urgent need for accurate and rapid detection of OFL. Immunoassay has become the "golden method" for detecting OFL in complex matrix beneficial to its applicability for a large-scale screening, rapidity, and simplicity. However, traditional antibodies used in immunoassay present challenges such as time-consuming preparation, unstable sensitivity and specificity, and difficulty in directional evolution. In this paper, we successfully developed an OFL detection method based on a shark-derived single-domain antibody (ssdAb) to address these issues. RESULTS Using phage display technology and a heterologous expression system, OFL-specific clones 1O11, 1O13, 1O17, 1O19, 1O21, and 2O26 were successfully isolated and expressed in soluble form. Among all OFL-specific ssdAbs, the 1O17 ssdAb exhibited the highest binding affinity to OFL in a concentration-dependence manner. The limit of detection (IC10) of 1O17 ssdAb was calculated as 0.34 ng/mL with a detection range of 3.40-1315.00 ng/mL, and its cross reactivity with other analogs was calculated to be less than 5.98 %, indicating high specificity and sensitivity. Molecular docking results revealed that 100Trp and 101Arg located in the CDR3 region of 1O17 ssdAb were crucial for OFL binding. In fish matrix performance tests, the 1O17 ssdAb did not demonstrate severe matrix interference in OFL-negative fish matrix, achieving satisfactory recovery rates ranging from 83.04 % to 108.82 % with high reproducibility. SIGNIFICANCE This research provides a new and efficient OFL detection recognition element with significant potential in immunoassay applications, broadening the application scenarios of ssdAbs. It offers valuable insights into the structure-activity relationship between ssdAbs and small molecules, laying a theoretical foundation for the further directional modification and maturation of ssdAbs in subsequent applications.

Abstract
Advances in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection have helped to overcome the limitations of traditional in vitro diagnostic methods, such as fluorescence and chemiluminescence, owing to its high sensitivity and multiplex detection capability. However, for the implementation of SERS detection technology in disease diagnosis, a SERS-based assay platform capable of analyzing clinical samples is essential. Moreover, infectious diseases like COVID-19 require the development of point-of-care (POC) diagnostic technologies that can rapidly and accurately determine infection status. As an effective assay platform, SERS-based bioassays utilize SERS nanotags labeled with protein or DNA receptors on Au or Ag nanoparticles, serving as highly sensitive optical probes. Additionally, a microdevice is necessary as an interface between the target biomolecules and SERS nanotags. This review aims to introduce various microdevices developed for SERS detection, available for POC diagnostics, including LFA strips, microfluidic chips, and microarray chips. Furthermore, the article presents research findings reported in the last 20 years for the SERS-based bioassay of various diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and infectious diseases. Finally, the prospects of SERS bioassays are discussed concerning the integration of SERS-based microdevices and portable Raman readers into POC systems, along with the utilization of artificial intelligence technology.

Abstract
The photothermal lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is of great significance to suitable for on-site semiquantitative detection, which has the upper hand in further constructing detection methods for low-concentration targets. Herein, we presented a doping engineering-powered nanoheterostructure with an enhanced photothermal performance strategy, employing bimetallic nanocuboid Pt3Sn (PSNCs) as a proof of concept. With the help of finite element simulation analysis, the contrast of direct temperature experiment, and the evaluation of photothermal conversion efficiency (η), the distinguished and enthusiastic photothermal feedback of PSNCs is proved. Based on steady bright black of colorimetric and superior photothermal performance, the PSNCs were employed to construct an ultrasensitive model LIFA for detecting Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium), which achieved the double-signal semiquantitative detection, the detection limit reached 103 cfu mL-1 (colorimetric mode) and 102 cfu mL-1 (photothermal mode), which is 100 times higher than that of the traditional colloidal gold method. In addition, the method was effective for the detection of targets in dairy samples only through a simple dilution treatment, which was completed within 15 min. Meanwhile, this PSNCs dual-signal LFIA demonstrated the sensitive detection of S. typhimurium due to the excellent colorimetric signal and significant photothermal performance, which provides a broad spectrum for the future detection of foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
Dengue is one of the most widespread and fatal arboviral infections in the world. Early detection of dengue virus (DENV) is essential to prevent the spread of the disease and provide an immediate response. The lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) systems are low-cost, rapid, sensitive, targeted, and straightforward detection, which is an ideal early detection candidate for point-of-care testing (POCT) in dengue-affected areas. However, current commercial LFIA kits cannot fully satisfy the sensitivity, specificity, serotype differentiation, and multiplex detection requirements. Therefore, various strategies have been applied to optimize the LFIA for DENV detection, including label material improvement, optical enhancement and novel structure design. In this review, we comprehensively presented the snapshot of dengue, the principle of LFIA, and recent progress in the LFIA optimization for dengue diagnoses. Furthermore, this review also discusses insights into the prospect of LFIA dengue diagnostic methods, such as microfluidics, multiplex design, nucleic acid-typed probes and smartphone-assisted result analysis.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been a notable increase in interest surrounding nanozymes due to their ability to imitate the functions and address the limitations of natural enzymes. The scientific community has been greatly intrigued by the study of nanoceria, primarily because of their distinctive physicochemical characteristics, which include a variety of enzyme-like activities, affordability, exceptional stability, and the ability to easily modify their surfaces. Consequently, nanoceria have found extensive use in various biosensing applications. However, the impact of its redox activity on the enzymatic catalytic mechanism remains a subject of debate, as conflicting findings in the literature have presented both pro-oxidant and antioxidant effects. Herein, we creatively propose a seesaw model to clarify the regulatory mechanism on redox balance and survey possible mechanisms of multienzyme mimetic properties of nanoceria. In addition, this review aims to showcase the latest advancements in this field by systematically discussing over 180 research articles elucidating the significance of ceria-based nanozymes in enhancing, downsizing, and enhancing the efficacy of point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. These advancements align with the ASSURED criteria established by the World Health Organization (WHO). Furthermore, this review also examines potential constraints in order to offer readers a concise overview of the emerging role of nanoceria in the advancement of POC diagnostic systems for future biosensing applications.

Abstract
In this study, we present a novel and ultrasensitive magnetic lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) tailored for the precise detection of zearalenone, a mycotoxin with significant implications for human and animal health. A versatile and straightforward method for creating non-covalent magnetic labels is proposed and comprehensively compared with a covalent immobilization strategy. We employ the magnetic particle quantification (MPQ) technique for precise detection of the labels and characterization of their functionality, including measuring the antibody sorption density on the particle surface. Through kinetic studies using the label-free spectral phase interferometry, the rate and equilibrium constants for the binding of monoclonal antibodies with free (not bound with carrier protein) zearalenone were determined to be kon = 3.42 × 105 M-1s-1, koff = 7.05 × 10-4 s-1, and KD = 2.06 × 10-9 M. The proposed MPQ-LFIA method exhibits detection limits of 2.3 pg/mL and 7.6 pg/mL when employing magnetic labels based on covalent immobilization and non-covalent sorption, with dynamic ranges of 5.5 and 5 orders, correspondingly. We have successfully demonstrated the effective determination of zearalenone in barley flour samples contaminated with Fusarium graminearum. The ease of use and effectiveness of developed test systems further enhances their value as practical tools for addressing mycotoxin contamination challenges.

Abstract
Improving the sensitivity of immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) lies in the signal strength and probe activity of the labeled tracers, and the color properties and structure of the labeled tracers are key factors affecting the biological activity. In this study, cerium vanadate (CeVO4) of different sizes and shapes (230, 1058, and 710 nm) was synthesized to investigate its impact on the performance of ICA for T-2 detection. The prepared CeVO4 possessed outstanding stability, a large specific surface area, superior biocompatibility, and high compatibility with T-2 mAb (affinity constant was 3.14 × 108 M-1). As labeling probes for competitive ICA, the results showed that 1058 nm of CeVO4 as labels exhibited the best detection performance, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.079 ng/mL, which was substantially 19-fold less than the average of gold nanoparticle ICA. Additionally, CeVO4-ICA was effectively used to detect T-2 toxin, and the recovery rate for spiking corn and oatmeal samples was determined to be 81.27-115.44% (relative standard deviation <9.16%). The above information demonstrates the efficiency and applicability of CeVO4-ICA as a technique for quick and thorough identification of T-2 toxin residues in food.

Abstract
Efficient detection of related markers is significant for the early screening of COVID-19. Near infrared (NIR) light excited up-conversion fluorescence probes are ideal for biosensing but limited by the low luminescence efficiency. In this work, a novel highly stable opal photonic crystal (OPC) structure was designed to provide an OPC effect for up-conversion fluorescence enhancement, and sensitive Novel Coronavirus IgG up-conversion FRET-based sensor was further constructed. For the problems of water stability and mechanical stability of polymer OPC which cannot be solved for a long time, polymer spray combined with a flipped OPC film strategy is presented. Fragmented size OPC film was firmly fixed by polymer modification layer, which gave large size OPC film great water stability, mechanical stability and bending performance without affecting the fluorescence enhancement property. On this basis, the up-conversion emission intensity was enhanced significantly, and fluorescence resonant energy transfer (FRET) based Novel Coronavirus IgG antibody sensor was constructed. Monolayer up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) on the surface of the polydopamine (PDA)/OPC film can make the fluorescent signal more sensitive, and effectively reduce the detection limit. The test device integrating NIR excitation and mobile phone realized the visual fast detection, showing remarkable sensing performance for COVID-19 antibodies with the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 ng mL-1. This detection platform will provide a more effective tool for early detection of the novel coronavirus.

Abstract
Healthcare-associated pathogenic viruses and bacteria can have a serious impact on human health and have attracted widespread global attention. The lateral flow assay is a unidirectional detection based on the binding of a target analyte and a bioreceptor on the device via lateral flow. With incredible advantages over traditional chromatographic methods, such as rapid detection, ease of manufacture and cost effectiveness, these test strips are increasingly considered the ideal form for point-of-care applications. This review explores lateral flow assays for pathogenic viruses and bacteria, with a particular focus on methodologies, device components, construction methods, and applications. We anticipate that this review could provide exciting opportunities for developing new lateral flow devices for pathogens and advance related healthcare applications.

Abstract
Recently, illicit drug use has become more widespread and is linked to problems with crime and public health. These drugs disrupt consciousness, affecting perceptions and feelings. Combining stimulants and depressants to suppress the effect of drugs has become the most common reason for drug overdose deaths. On-site platforms for illicit-drug detection have gained an important role in dealing, without any excess equipment, long process, and training, with drug abuse and drug trafficking. Consequently, the development of rapid, sensitive, noninvasive, and reliable multiplex drug-detecting platforms has become a major necessity. In this study, a multiplex laser-scribed graphene (LSG) sensing platform with one counter, one reference, and three working electrodes was developed for rapid and sensitive electrochemical detection of amphetamine (AMP), cocaine (COC), and benzodiazepine (BZD) simultaneously in saliva samples. The multidetection sensing system was combined with a custom-made potentiostat to achieve a complete point-of-care (POC) platform. Smartphone integration was achieved by a customized application to operate, display, and send data. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first multiplex LSG-based electrochemical platform designed for illicit-drug detection with a custom-made potentiostat device to build a complete POC platform. Each working electrode was optimized with standard solutions of AMP, COC, and BZD in the concentration range of 1.0 pg/mL-500 ng/mL. The detection limit of each illicit drug was calculated as 4.3 ng/mL for AMP, 9.7 ng/mL for BZD, and 9.0 ng/mL for COC. Healthy and MET (methamphetamine) patient saliva samples were used for the clinical study. The multiplex LSG sensor was able to detect target analytes in real saliva samples successfully. This multiplex detection device serves the role of a practical and affordable alternative to conventional drug-detection methods by combining multiple drug detections in one portable platform.

Abstract
Lychnis mottle virus (LycMoV; genus Unassigned, family Secoviridae) infection of Angelica sinensis produces mottle and mosaic symptoms, damaging the host. Early detection of relevant pathogens is the most critical step in preventing the potential transmission of infectious disease. Polyclonal antibodies with high potency and high specificity were prepared using the recombinant LycMoV capsid protein as an antigen. Here, we developed and optimized a rapid colloidal gold immunochromatography assay (GICA) detection system for LycMoV using this antibody. Under optimum conditions, GICA specifically detected (up to 10,000-fold) positive LycMoV samples. A real-time reverse-transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) system was also established by selecting the primers with high sensitivity and specificity to LycMoV. The RT-LAMP detection threshold was 1.42 fg/μl (291 copies/μl). A GICA-RT-LAMP assay system was further established and optimized. The minimum GICA detection line was calculated at 1.52 × 10-2 ng/μl. Although GICA did not detect positive samples after capturing virus at 2.53 × 10-3 ng/μl, GICA-LAMP and GICA-RT-PCR did, whose sensitivity was comparatively greater than sixfold. This is the first report showing that GICA-RT-LAMP is a cost-effective approach for use in detecting LycMoV without extracting nucleic acids. These sensitive assays will help improve virus disease management in A. sinensis crops.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy for the analysis of circulating cancer biomarkers (CBs) is a major advancement toward the early detection of cancer. In comparison to tissue biopsy techniques, liquid biopsy is relatively painless, offering multiple sampling opportunities across easily accessible bodily fluids such as blood, urine, and saliva. Liquid biopsy is also relatively inexpensive and simple, avoiding the requirement for specialized laboratory equipment or trained medical staff. Major advances in the field of liquid biopsy are attributed largely to developments in nanotechnology and microfabrication that enables the creation of highly precise chip-based platforms. These devices can overcome detection limitations of an individual biomarker by detecting multiple markers simultaneously on the same chip, or by featuring integrated and combined target separation techniques. In this review, the major advances in the field of portable and semi-portable micro, nano, and multiplexed platforms for CB detection for the early diagnosis of cancer are highlighted. A comparative discussion is also provided, noting merits and drawbacks of the platforms, especially in terms of portability. Finally, key challenges toward device portability and possible solutions, as well as discussing the future direction of the field are highlighted.

Abstract
The nanozyme-strip is a novel POCT technology which is different from the conventional colloidal gold strip. It primarily utilizes the catalytic activity of nanozyme to achieve a high-sensitivity detection of target by amplifying the detection signal. However, previous research has chiefly focused on optimizing nanozyme-strip from the perspective of increasing nanozyme activity, little is known about other physicochemical factors. In this work, three sizes of Fe3O4 nanozyme and three sizes of CoFe2O4 nanozyme were used to investigate the key factors of nanozyme-strip for optimizing and improving its detection performance. We found that three sizes of Fe3O4 nanozyme all gather at the bottom of the nitrocellulose (NC) membrane, and three sizes of CoFe2O4 nanozyme migrate smoothly on the NC membrane, respectively. After color development, the surface of NC membranes distributed with CoFe2O4 peroxidase nanozymes had significant color change. Experimental results show that CoFe2O4 nanozymes had better dispersity than Fe3O4 nanozymes in an aqueous solution. We observed that CoFe2O4 nanozymes with smaller particle size migrated to the middle of the NC membrane with a higher number of particles. According to the results above, 55 ± 6 nm CoFe2O4 nanozyme was selected to prepare the nanozyme probe and achieved a highly sensitive detection of Aβ42Os on the nanozyme-strip. These results suggest that nanozyme should be comprehensively evaluated in its dispersity, the migration on NC membrane, and the peroxidase-like activity to determine whether it can be applied to nanozyme-strip.

Abstract
Perfluorinated-alkyl substances (PFAS) pose an unmet threat to the public because they are not strictly monitored and regulated. Perfluorinated-carbon alkyl chains (PFOA), a type of PFAS, at 70 fg/μL is the current health and safety recommendation. Current testing methods for PFOA and PFAS chemicals include HPLC-MS/MS and molecularly imprinted polymers, which are expensive, time-consuming, and require training. In this work, PFOA and PFOS detection was performed on a paper microfluidic chip using competitive interactions between PFOA/PFOS, cellulose fibers, and various reagents (L-lysine, casein, and albumin). Such interactions altered the surface tension at the wetting front and, subsequently, the capillary flow rate. A smartphone captured the videos of this capillary action. The samples flowed through the channel in less than 2 min. Albumin worked the best in detecting PFOA, followed by casein. The detection limit was 10 ag/μL in DI water and 1 fg/μL in effluent (processed) wastewater. Specificity to other non-fluorocarbon surfactants was also tested, using anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), non-ionic Tween 20, and cationic cetrimonium bromide (CTAB). A combination of the reagents successfully distinguished PFOA from all three surfactants at 100% accuracy. This low-cost, handheld assay can be an accessible alternative for rapid in situ estimation of PFOA concentration.

Abstract
Early diagnosis saves lives in many diseases. In this sense, monitoring of biomarkers is crucial for the diagnosis of diseases. Lateral flow assays (LFAs) have attracted great attention among paper-based point-of-care testing (POCT) due to their low cost, user-friendliness, and time-saving advantages. Developments in the field of health have led to an increase of interest in these rapid tests. LFAs are used in the diagnosis and monitoring of many diseases, thanks to biomarkers that can be observed in body fluids. This review covers the recent advances dealing with the design and strategies for the development of LFA for the detection of biomarkers used in clinical applications in the last 5 years. We focus on various strategies such as choosing the nanoparticle type, single or multiple test approaches, and equipment for signal transducing for the detection of the most common biomarkers in different diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular, infectious, and others including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. We expect that this study will contribute to the different approaches in LFA and pave the way for other clinical applications.

Abstract
Owing to their outstanding optical properties and superior physical/chemical stability, dye-doped fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs) are growing exponentially as signal labels of immunochromatographic lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) for the detection of various analytes. However, the key challenge in the design of these fluorescent NPs is to confine the fluorophores inside NPs at extreme concentrations, at which dyes tend to self-quench resulting from the formation of non-fluorescent aggregates. Looking for other advantageous nanomaterials, we propose for the first time the use of a nanosized fluorescent metal-organic framework (nanoMOF) in LFA for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) as a model analyte. Featured by the chromophore assembly, the nanoMOF exhibited a high dye loading (∼60%) and strong fluorescence intensity, which was due to the reduced self-quenching of dyes in a variety of MOF matrices. The strong green fluorescence intensity of the nanoMOF gives a high contrast against the background of the strips and the sensitivity reflected by photoluminescence was improved by the enhanced antenna effect. Furthermore, due to the high surface area for antibody stemming, the limit of detection (LOD) of the MOF based LFA for SEB detection was as low as 0.025 ng mL-1. The compatibility of the MOF based LFA with dairy samples and its stability under long-term storage conditions were also demonstrated. The integration of a nanoMOF into LFA to detect toxins could inspire the utilization of such nanomaterial-based labels in similar immunochromatographic testing methods to improve their performance.

Abstract
The development of robust biosensing strategies that can be easily implemented in everyday life remains a challenge for the future of modern biosensor research. While several reagentless approaches have attempted to address this challenge, they often achieve user-friendliness through sacrificing sensitivity or universality. While acceptable for certain applications, these trade-offs hinder the widespread adoption of reagentless biosensing technologies. Here, we report a novel approach to reagentless biosensing that achieves high sensitivity, rapid detection, and universality using the SARS-CoV-2 virus as a model target. Universality is achieved by using nanoscale molecular pendulums, which enables reagentless electrochemical biosensing through a variable antibody recognition element. Enhanced sensitivity and rapid detection are accomplished by incorporating the coffee-ring phenomenon into the sensing scheme, allowing for target preconcentration on a ring-shaped electrode. Using this approach, we obtained limits of detection of 1 fg/mL and 20 copies/mL for the SARS-CoV-2 nucleoproteins and viral particles, respectively. In addition, clinical sample analysis showed excellent agreement with Ct values from PCR-positive SARS-CoV-2 patients.

Abstract
Aquatic toxins are a group of toxic compounds produced by several types of freshwater and marine algae and cyanobacteria and transported through the food chains of water bodies. Potential contamination of aquaculture products (raw and processed fish and seafood) with aquatic toxins requires the use of efficient screening methods for their control. In this study, a multiplex immunochromatographic test system for the simultaneous detection of three aquatic toxins-phycotoxins domoic acid (DA) and okadaic acid (OA), and cyanotoxin microcystin-LR (MC-LR)-is for the first time developed. For this, a competitive indirect immunochromatographic analysis (ICA) based on gold-labeled secondary antibodies was carried out. The LODs/cutoffs/working ranges of the ICA were 0.05/0.3/0.07-0.29, 1.3/100/3.2-58.2, and 0.1/2.0/0.2-1.1 ng/mL for MC-LR, DA, and OA, respectively. The assay duration was 18 min. The developed test system was used to analyze water samples from natural sources (salt and fresh water) and fish samples. For sample preparation of water, simple dilution with a buffer was proposed; for fish samples, methanol-water extraction was utilized. It was demonstrated that the triple LFIA specifically detected target aquatic toxins with recoveries of 85.0-121.5%. The developed multiplex LFIA can be considered a promising analytical solution for the rapid, easy, and sensitive control of water and food safety.

Abstract
Molecular tests are highly reliable and sensitive but lack portability and are not simple to use; conversely, easy-to-use antigenic tests still lack high performance. BioScreen combines single-molecule sensitivity and outstanding reliability with ultraportability and simplicity of use. This digital platform is capable of artificial intelligence-based binary classification at the limit of identification of a single marker/virus in 0.1 ml. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy reach 99.2% as validated through 240 assays, including a pilot clinical trial. The versatile immunometric system can detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus, spike S1, and immunoglobulin G antigen proteins in saliva, blood serum, and swab. BioScreen has a small footprint comprising a disposable cartridge and a handheld electronic reader connected to a smart device. The sample handling is minimal, and the assay time to result is 21 min. Reliable and sensitive self-testing with an ultraportable and easy-to-use diagnostic system operated directly by a patient holds the potential to revolutionize point-of-care testing and early diagnosis.

Abstract
Bacteria, viruses, and parasites are harmful microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Early detection of diseases is critical to prevent disease transmission and provide epidemic preparedness, as these can cause widespread deaths and public health crises, particularly in resource-limited countries. Lateral flow assay (LFA) systems are simple-to-use, disposable, inexpensive diagnostic devices to test biomarkers in blood and urine samples. Thus, LFA has recently received significant attention, especially during the pandemic. Here, first of all, the design principles and working mechanisms of existing LFA methods are examined. Then, current LFA implementation strategies are presented for communicable disease diagnoses, including COVID-19, zika and dengue, HIV, hepatitis, influenza, malaria, and other pathogens. Furthermore, this review focuses on an overview of current problems and accessible solutions in detecting infectious agents and diseases by LFA, focusing on increasing sensitivity with various detection methods. In addition, future trends in LFA-based diagnostics are envisioned.

Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infectious diseases worldwide. This type of infections can be healthcare-associated or community-acquired and affects millions of people every year. Different diagnostic procedures are available to detect pathogens in urine and they can be divided into two main categories: laboratory-based and point-of-care (POC) detection techniques. Traditional methodologies are often time-consuming, thus, achieving a rapid and accurate identification of pathogens is a challenging feature that has been pursued by many research groups and companies operating in this area. The purpose of this review is to compare and highlight advantages and disadvantages of the traditional and currently most used detection methods, as well as the emerging POC approaches and the relevant advances in on-site detection of pathogens´ mechanisms, suitable to be adapted to UTI diagnosis. Lately, the commercially available UTI self-testing kits and devices are helping in the diagnosis of urinary infections as patients or care givers are able to perform the test, easily and comfortably at home and, upon the result, decide when to attend an appointment/Urgent Health Care Unit.

Abstract
Immunoassays are a powerful tool for sensitive and quantitative analysis of a wide range of biomolecular analytes in the clinic and in research laboratories. However, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-the gold-standard assay-requires significant user intervention, time, and clinical resources, making its deployment at the point-of-care (POC) impractical. Researchers have made great strides toward democratizing access to clinical quality immunoassays at the POC and at an affordable price. In this review, we first summarize the commercially available options that offer high performance, albeit at high cost. Next, we describe strategies for the development of frugal POC assays that repurpose consumer electronics and smartphones for the quantitative detection of analytes. Finally, we discuss innovative assay formats that enable highly sensitive analysis in the field with simple instrumentation.

Abstract
The two sensitive fluorescence quantitative immunochromatographic assays (FQICAs), background fluorescence quenching immunochromatographic assay (bFQICA) and time-resolved fluorescent immunochromatographic assay (TRFICA), play an important role increasingly in rapid detection technology for food safety. Amantadine (AMD), used extensively in virus infections in livestock and poultry, has been prohibited due to hazard concerns over public human health. Therefore, AMD was used as a model molecule in the FQICAs establishment and comparison based on the same bioreagents. The outstanding performance in technical parameters of the two FQICAs indicated that they could provide rapid, precise, reliable technical support for large-scale on-site screening for AMD detection. What's more, the systematic and comprehensive comparison of the two FQICAs would give useful suggestions for scientists and users in monitoring the harmful compounds.

Abstract
COVID-19 outbreak revealed fundamental weaknesses of current diagnostic systems, particularly in prediction and subsequently prevention of pandemic infectious diseases (PIDs). Among PIDs detection methods, wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has been demonstrated to be a favorable mean for estimation of community-wide health. Besides, by going beyond purely sensing usages of WBE, it can be efficiently exploited in Healthcare 4.0/5.0 for surveillance, monitoring, control, and above all prediction and prevention, thereby, resulting in smart sensing and management of potential outbreaks/epidemics/pandemics. Herein, an overview of WBE sensors for PIDs is presented. The philosophy behind the smart diagnosis of PIDs using WBE with the help of digital technologies is then discussed, as well as their characteristics to be met. Analytical techniques that are pushing the frontiers of smart sensing and have a high potential to be used in the smart diagnosis of PIDs via WBE are surveyed. In this context, we underscore key challenges ahead and provide recommendations for implementing and moving faster toward smart diagnostics.

Abstract
Diverse chemicals and some physical phenomena recently introduced in nanotechnology have enabled scientists to develop useful devices in the field of food sciences. Concerning such developments, detecting foodborne pathogenic bacteria is now an important issue. These kinds of bacteria species have demonstrated severe health effects after consuming foods and high mortality related to acute cases. The most leading path of intoxication and infection has been through food matrices. Hence, quick recognition of foodborne bacteria agents at low concentrations has been required in current diagnostics. Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are one of the urgent and prevalently applied quick recognition methods that have been settled for recognizing diverse types of analytes. Thus, the present review has stressed on latest developments in LFAs-based platforms to detect various foodborne pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella, Listeria, Escherichia coli, Brucella, Shigella, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium botulinum, and Vibrio cholera. Proper prominence has been given on exactly how the labels, detection elements, or procedures have affected recent developments in the evaluation of diverse bacteria using LFAs. Additionally, the modifications in assays specificity and sensitivity consistent with applied food processing techniques have been discussed. Finally, a conclusion has been drawn for highlighting the main challenges confronted through this method and offered a view and insight of thoughts for its further development in the future.

Abstract
CRISPR–Cas (CC)-based detection technologies have some exceptional features, which hold the promise of developing into the next-generation diagnostic platforms. One of these features is the ability to trigger non-specific single-stranded DNA/RNA cleavage activity after specific target recognition and Cas enzyme activation. This cleavage activity can be visualized either by single-stranded DNA/RNA fluorescence resonance energy transfer quenching reporters or via lateral flow strips, which separate and detect the cleaved reporters. In a previous study, we reported coupling CC-cleavage activity with the enzyme terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) that elongates cleaved ssDNA reporter fragments with dTTP nucleotides. These elongated poly(thymine) tails then act as scaffolds for the formation of copper nanoparticles which generate a bright fluorescent signal upon UV excitation. In the current study, we visualize the poly(thymine) tails on lateral flow strips, using different combinations of biotinylated or fluorescein-labeled nucleotides, various reporters, and capture oligos. One particular approach, using a fluorescein reporter, reached a target sensitivity of <1 pM and was named Cas activity assay on a strip and was tested using Bacillus anthracis genomic DNA.

Abstract
A facile, one-step doping protocol was adopted to synthesize Co single atomic site catalysts (SASCs) in UiO-66 metal-organic frameworks. In view of highly uniform active sites of Co-O6 moieties, the SASCs specifically contribute to catalyzing the generation of a large amount of singlet oxygen instead of superoxide or hydroxyl radicals, which endows Co SASCs with a the remarkable enhancement effect (∼3775 times) on luminol chemiluminescent (CL) emission. Interestingly, monolayer titanium carbide MXenes can drastically quench the CL signal of the Co SASC-boosted luminol reaction by ∼94.6% as highly efficient luminescent absorbents. Furthermore, the emitter-quencher pair of Co SASCs and titanium carbide MXenes was successfully adopted to develop an immunoassay method for cardiac troponin I (cTnI) on an immunochromatographic test strip platform. With a sandwich immunoreaction mode, a titanium carbide MXene-labeled cTnI tracer antibody was captured on the test line of a test strip, which significantly inhibited the CL response of the Co SACs-boosted luminol system. The dynamic range for quantitating cTnI is 1.0-100 pg mL-1, with a detection limit of 0.33 pg mL-1 (3σ). The test strip was successfully used to detect cTnI in human serum samples collected from cardiopathy patients. This proof-of-principle work manifests both the CL enhancement of SASCs and the quenching behavior of MXenes, which shows the thrilling prospects of combinational usage of the two functionalized nanomaterials for tracking biological recognition events.

Abstract
Viruses are responsible for multiple infections in humans that impose huge health burdens on individuals and populations worldwide. Therefore, numerous diagnostic methods and strategies have been developed for prevention, management, and decreasing the burden of viral diseases, each having its advantages and limitations. Viral infections are commonly detected using serological and nucleic acid-based methods. However, these conventional and clinical approaches have some limitations that can be resolved by implementing other detector devices. Therefore, the search for sensitive, selective, portable, and costless approaches as efficient alternative clinical methods for point of care testing (POCT) analysis has gained much attention in recent years. POCT is one of the ultimate goals in virus detection, and thus, the tests need to be rapid, specific, sensitive, accessible, and user-friendly. In this review, after a brief overview of viruses and their characteristics, the conventional viral detection methods, the clinical approaches, and their advantages and shortcomings are firstly explained. Then, LFA systems working principles, benefits, classification are discussed. Furthermore, the studies regarding designing and employing LFAs in diagnosing different types of viruses, especially SARS-CoV-2 as a main concern worldwide and innovations in the LFAs' approaches and designs, are comprehensively discussed here. Furthermore, several strategies addressed in some studies for overcoming LFA limitations like low sensitivity are reviewed. Numerous techniques are adopted to increase sensitivity and perform quantitative detection. Employing several visualization methods, using different labeling reporters, integrating LFAs with other detection methods to benefit from both LFA and the integrated detection device advantages, and designing unique membranes to increase reagent reactivity, are some of the approaches that are highlighted.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant global social and economic disruption. The highly transmissive nature of the disease makes rapid and reliable detection critically important. Point-of-care (POC) tests involve performing diagnostic tests outside of a laboratory that produce a rapid and reliable result. It therefore allows the diagnostics of diseases at or near the patient site. Paper-based POC tests have been gaining interest in recent years as they allow rapid, low-cost detection without the need for external instruments. In this review, we focus on the development of paper-based POC devices for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. The review first introduces the principles of detection methods that are available to paper-based devices. It then summarizes the state-of-the-art paper devices and their analytical performances. The advantages and drawbacks among methods are also discussed. Finally, limitations of the existing devices are discussed, and prospects are given with the hope to identify research opportunities and directions in the field. We hope this review will be helpful for researchers to develop a clinically useful and economically efficient paper-based platform that can be used for rapid, accurate on-site diagnosis to aid in identifying acute infections and eventually contain the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
Semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (Pdots) have been demonstrated to be a promising class of probes for use in fluorometric immunochromatographic test strips (ICTS). The advantages of Pdots in ICTSs include ultrahigh brightness, minimal nonspecific adsorption, and multicolor availability, which together contribute to the high sensitivity, good specificity, and multiplexing ability. These unique properties can therefore circumvent several significant challenges of commercial ICTSs, including insufficient specificity/sensitivity and difficulty in quantitative and multiplexed detection. Here, we developed a colorimetric and fluorescent bimodal readout ICTS based on gold-Pdot nanohybrids for the determination of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA 21-1) expressed abnormally in human blood of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLS). The vivid color from Au nanomaterials can be used for rapid qualitative screening (colorimetry) in 15 min, while the bright fluorescence of Pdots is ideal for the advanced quantitative measurements of CEA and CYFRA21-1 concentrations in whole blood samples. This bimodal ICTS platform possesses phenomenal detection sensitivity of 0.07 and 0.12 ng/mL for CYFRA21-1 and CEA, respectively. The accuracy and reliability of this ICTS platform were further evaluated with clinical serum samples from NSCLS patients at different stages, showing good consistency with the results from electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.

Abstract
Real-time connectivity and employment of sustainable materials empowers point-of-care diagnostics with the capability to send clinically relevant data to health care providers even in low-resource settings. In this study, we developed an advantageous kit for the on-site detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in human serum. CEA sensing was performed using cellulose-based lateral flow strips, and colorimetric signals were read, processed, and measured using a smartphone-based system. The corresponding immunoreaction was reported by polydopamine-modified gold nanoparticles in order to boost the signal intensity and improve the surface blocking and signal-to-noise relationship, thereby enhancing detection sensitivity when compared with bare gold nanoparticles (up to 20-fold in terms of visual limit of detection). Such lateral flow strips showed a linear range from 0.05 to 50 ng/mL, with a visual limit of detection of 0.05 ng/mL and an assay time of 15 min. Twenty-six clinical samples were also tested using the proposed kit and compared with the gold standard of immunoassays (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay), demonstrating an excellent correlation (R = 0.99). This approach can potentially be utilized for the monitoring of cancer treatment, particularly at locations far from centralized laboratory facilities.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-based artificial enzymes (or nanozymes) have attracted great attention in the past few years owing to their capability not only to mimic functionality but also to overcome the inherent drawbacks of the natural enzymes. Numerous advantages of nanozymes such as diverse enzyme-mimicking activities, low cost, high stability, robustness, unique surface chemistry, and ease of surface tunability and biocompatibility have allowed their integration in a wide range of biosensing applications. Several metal, metal oxide, metal-organic framework-based nanozymes have been exploited for the development of biosensing systems, which present the potential for point-of-care analysis. To highlight recent progress in the field, in this review, more than 260 research articles are discussed systematically with suitable recent examples, elucidating the role of nanozymes to reinforce, miniaturize, and improve the performance of point-of-care diagnostics addressing the ASSURED (affordable, sensitive, specific, user-friendly, rapid and robust, equipment-free and deliverable to the end user) criteria formulated by World Health Organization. The review reveals that many biosensing strategies such as electrochemical, colorimetric, fluorescent, and immunological sensors required to achieve the ASSURED standards can be implemented by using enzyme-mimicking activities of nanomaterials as signal producing components. However, basic system functionality is still lacking. Since the enzyme-mimicking properties of the nanomaterials are dictated by their size, shape, composition, surface charge, surface chemistry as well as external parameters such as pH or temperature, these factors play a crucial role in the design and function of nanozyme-based point-of-care diagnostics. Therefore, it requires a deliberate exertion to integrate various parameters for truly ASSURED solutions to be realized. This review also discusses possible limitations and research gaps to provide readers a brief scenario of the emerging role of nanozymes in state-of-the-art POC diagnosis system development for futuristic biosensing applications.

Abstract
A simple and low-cost fluorescence aptasensor was developed for rapid and sensitive signal amplification detection of T-2 mycotoxin (T-2). Dual-terminal-fluorescein amidite (FAM)-labeled aptamer (D-aptamer) acted as a recognition element and signal indicator. The metal organic frameworks (MOFs) of N, N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)dithiooxamidato copper (II) (H2dtoaCu) were as the quencher. The D-aptamer was initially adsorbed to the surface of H2dtoaCu, leading to efficient quenching of the aptasensor. Upon addition of T-2, the D-aptamer underwent a conformation change to form the T-2/T-2 aptamer complex, which induced the signaling probe to be released from the H2dtoaCu surface. Thus, the fluorescence intensity (FL) of the D-aptamer was recovered. Versus the single-terminal-FAM-labeled aptamer (S-aptamer), the D-aptamer showed a lower detection limit of 0.39 ng/mL. The aptasensor was also successfully applied to detect T-2 in corn and wheat samples with good recoveries.

Abstract
The Lateral Flow Immunoassay (LFIA) is by far one of the most successful analytical platforms to perform the on-site detection of target substances. LFIA can be considered as a sort of lab-in-a-hand and, together with other point-of-need tests, has represented a paradigm shift from sample-to-lab to lab-to-sample aiming to improve decision making and turnaround time. The features of LFIAs made them a very attractive tool in clinical diagnostic where they can improve patient care by enabling more prompt diagnosis and treatment decisions. The rapidity, simplicity, relative cost-effectiveness, and the possibility to be used by nonskilled personnel contributed to the wide acceptance of LFIAs. As a consequence, from the detection of molecules, organisms, and (bio)markers for clinical purposes, the LFIA application has been rapidly extended to other fields, including food and feed safety, veterinary medicine, environmental control, and many others. This review aims to provide readers with a 10-years overview of applications, outlining the trends for the main application fields and the relative compounded annual growth rates. Moreover, future perspectives and challenges are discussed.

Abstract
Lateral flow assay (LFA) is a flexible, simple, low-costpoint-of-care platform for rapid detection of disease-specific biomarkers. Importantly, the ability of the assay to capture the circulating bio-molecules has gained significant attention, as it offers a potential minimal invasive system for early disease diagnosis and prognosis. In the present article, we review an innovative concept of LFA-based detection of circulating long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), one of the key regulators of fundamental biological processes. In addition, their disease-specific expression pattern and presence in biological fluids at differential levels make them excellent biomarker candidates for cancer detection. Our article also provides an update on the requirements for developing and improving such systems and discusses the key aspects of material selection, operational concepts, principles and conceptual design. We assume that the reviewed points will be helpful to improve the diagnostic applicability of LFA based lncRNA detection in cancer diagnosis.
