Abstract
Gold nanoparticle-based lateral flow immunoassays (AuNP LFIAs) are widely used point-of-care (POC) sensors for in vitro diagnostics. However, the sensitivity limitation of conventional AuNP LFIAs impedes the detection of trace biomarkers. Several studies have explored the size and shape factors of AuNPs and derivative nanohybrids, showing limited improvements or enhanced sensitivity at the cost of convenience and affordability. Here, we investigated surface chemistry on the sensitivity of AuNP LFIAs. By modifying surface ligands, a surface chemistry strategy involving weakly ionized AuNPs enables ultrasensitive naked-eye LFIAs (~100-fold enhanced sensitivity). We demonstrated how this surface chemistry-amplified immunoassay approach modulates nanointerfacial bindings to promote antibody adsorption and higher activity of adsorbed antibodies. This surface chemistry design eliminates complex nanosynthesis, auxiliary devices, or additional reagents while efficiently improving sensitivity with advantages: simplified fabrication process, excellent reproducibility and reliability, and ultrasensitivity toward various biomarkers. The surface chemistry using weakly ionized AuNPs represents a versatile approach for sensitizing POC sensors.

Abstract
Epidemics caused by multiple viruses continue to emerge, which have brought a terrible impact on human society. Identification of viral infections with high sensitivity and portability is of significant importance for the screening and management of diseases caused by viruses. Herein, a microfluidic chip (MFC)-assisted upconversion luminescence biosensing platform is designed and fabricated for point-of-care virus detection. Upconversion nanoparticles with excellent stability are successfully synthesized as luminescent agents for optical signal generation in the portable virus diagnostic platform. The relevant investigation results illustrate that the MFC-assisted virus diagnostic platform possesses outstanding performance such as good integration, high sensitivity (1.12 pg mL-1), ease of use, and portability. In addition, clinical sample test result verifies its more prominent virus diagnostic properties than commercially available rapid test strips. All of these thrilling capabilities imply that the designed portable virus diagnostic platform has great potential for future virus detection applications.

Abstract
Advances in the development of new biorecognition elements, nanoparticle-based labels as well as instrumentation have inspired the design of new bioaffinity assays. This review critically discusses the potential of nanoparticles to replace current enzymatic or molecular labels in immunoassays and other bioaffinity assays. Successful implementations of nanoparticles in commercial assays and the need for rapid tests incorporating nanoparticles in different roles such as capture support, signal generation elements, and signal amplification systems are highlighted. The limited number of nanoparticles applied in current commercial assays can be explained by challenges associated with the analysis of real samples (e.g., blood, urine, or nasal swabs) that are difficult to resolve, particularly if the same performance can be achieved more easily by conventional labels. Lateral flow assays that are based on the visual detection of the red-colored line formed by colloidal gold are a notable exception, exemplified by SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen tests that have moved from initial laboratory testing to widespread market adaption in less than two years.

Abstract
Multiplexed computational sensing with a point-of-care serodiagnosis assay to simultaneously quantify three biomarkers of acute cardiac injury is demonstrated. This point-of-care sensor includes a paper-based fluorescence vertical flow assay (fxVFA) processed by a low-cost mobile reader, which quantifies the target biomarkers through trained neural networks, all within <15 min of test time using 50 µL of serum sample per patient. This fxVFA platform is validated using human serum samples to quantify three cardiac biomarkers, i.e., myoglobin, creatine kinase-MB, and heart-type fatty acid binding protein, achieving less than 0.52 ng mL-1 limit-of-detection for all three biomarkers with minimal cross-reactivity. Biomarker concentration quantification using the fxVFA that is coupled to neural network-based inference is blindly tested using 46 individually activated cartridges, which shows a high correlation with the ground truth concentrations for all three biomarkers achieving >0.9 linearity and <15% coefficient of variation. The competitive performance of this multiplexed computational fxVFA along with its inexpensive paper-based design and handheld footprint makes it a promising point-of-care sensor platform that can expand access to diagnostics in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
The accurate in-field titration of multiple pathogens is essential to efficiently describe and monitor environmental or biological contamination, isolate, act, and treat adequately. This underscores the requirement of portable, fast, quantitative, and multiplexed detection technologies, which, however, have not been properly developed so far, notably because it has been hindered by the phenomenon of cross-reactivity. In this work, we proposed a new analytical method based on the imaging through a portable device of lanthanide-based nanoparticles (YVO4:Eu) for spatially multiplexed detection, relying on a multiparameter analysis, i.e., a simultaneous analysis of all of the luminescence signals through the comparison to a calibration surface built in the presence of multiple analytes of interest. We then demonstrated the possibility to simultaneously quantify by multiplexed lateral flow assay (xLFA) the three enterotoxins SEG, SEH, and SEI in unknown mixtures, over two concentration decades (from a dozen of pg·mL-1 to few ng·mL-1). Assays were performed in less than an hour (25 min of strip migration followed by 30 min of drying at room temperature), the time during which the presence of the operator was not required for more than 5 min, in order to dip the strip and have it imaged by the reader. The concepts of nominal concentration recovery, coefficient of variation (CV), limit of blank (LOB), and limit of detection (LOD) were discussed in detail in the context of multiplexed assays. With our new definitions, quantitative results demonstrated a high recovery of the nominal concentrations (115%), reliability (CV = 20%), and sensitivity (LOBs of 3, 27, and 6 pg·mL-1 for SEG, SEH, and SEI respectively, and LODs of 6, 48, and 11 pg·mL-1 for SEG, SEH, and SEI, respectively). Based on this method, we observed an increase in sensitivity of 100 compared to the other multiplexed LFA labeled with gold particles and we approached the sensitivity of the simplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) performed with the same capture and detection antibodies. To conclude, our results, which are applicable to virtually any kind of multiplexed test, pave the way to the next generation of in-field analytical immunoassays by providing fast, quantitative, and highly sensitive multiplexed detection of biomarkers or pathogens.

Abstract
The combination of upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) and immunochromatography has become a widely used and promising new detection technique for point-of-care testing (POCT). However, their low luminescence efficiency, non-specific adsorption, and image noise have always limited their progress toward practical applications. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated powerful representational learning and generalization capabilities in computer vision. We report for the first time a combination of AI and upconversion nanoparticle-based lateral flow assays (UCNP-LFAs) for the quantitative detection of commercial internet of things (IoT) devices. This universal UCNPs quantitative detection strategy combines high accuracy, sensitivity, and applicability in the field detection environment. By using transfer learning to train AI models in a small self-built database, we not only significantly improved the accuracy and robustness of quantitative detection, but also efficiently solved the actual problems of data scarcity and low computing power of POCT equipment. Then, the trained AI model was deployed in IoT devices, whereby the detection process does not require detailed data preprocessing to achieve real-time inference of quantitative results. We validated the quantitative detection of two detectors using eight transfer learning models on a small dataset. The AI quickly provided ultra-high accuracy prediction results (some models could reach 100% accuracy) even when strong noise was added. Simultaneously, the high flexibility of this strategy promises to be a general quantitative detection method for optical biosensors. We believe that this strategy and device have a scientific significance in revolutionizing the existing POCT technology landscape and providing excellent commercial value in the in vitro diagnostics (IVD) industry.

Abstract
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a widely-used biomarker for the diagnosis, screening, and prognosis of prostate cancer (PCa). It is critical to develop a rapid and convenient method to accurately detect PSA levels, especially when the PSA levels are in the clinical gray area of 4-10 ng/mL. We developed a novel upconversion nanoparticle (UCNP)-based fluorescence lateral flow test strip for qualitatively and quantitatively detecting PSA. The carboxyl group-modified UCNPs (UCNP-COOH) were labeled with anti-PSA antibodies via 1-ethyl-3-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) as labeling probes to recognize PSA. The fluorescence intensity of the UCNP-probe was then measured with a laser fluorescence scanner. A total of 1397 serum and 20 fingertip blood samples were collected to validate the UCNP strip. A reliable correlation between the area ratio (TC), reflecting the fluorescence intensity of the test/control line, and the PSA concentration was observed (r = 0.9986). The dose-dependent luminescence enhancement showed good linearity in the PSA concentration range from 0.1 to 100.0 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.1 ng/mL. Our UCNP POCT strip demonstrated excellent accuracy, anti-interference and stability in the gray zone (4-10 ng/mL) of PSA clinical application and outperformed other PSA test strips. The UCNP strip showed good consistency with the Roche chemiluminescence assay in 1397 serum samples. It also showed good performance for PSA detection using fingertip blood samples. This novel UCNP-based test strip could be a sensitive and reliable POCT assay to detect PSA, facilitating the diagnosis and surveillance of PCa.

Abstract
Preeclampsia is a heterogeneous and multiorgan cardiovascular disorder of pregnancy. Here, we report the development of a novel strip-based lateral flow assay (LFA) using lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles conjugated to antibodies targeting two different biomarkers for detection of preeclampsia. We first measured circulating plasma FKBPL and CD44 protein concentrations from individuals with early-onset preeclampsia (EOPE), using ELISA. We confirmed that the CD44/FKBPL ratio is reduced in EOPE with a good diagnostic potential. Using our rapid LFA prototypes, we achieved an improved lower limit of detection: 10 pg ml-1 for FKBPL and 15 pg ml-1 for CD44, which is more than one order lower than the standard ELISA method. Using clinical samples, a cut-off value of 1.24 for CD44/FKBPL ratio provided positive predictive value of 100 % and the negative predictive value of 91 %. Our LFA shows promise as a rapid and highly sensitive point-of-care test for preeclampsia.

Abstract
Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)-based fluorescence probes have shown great potential in point-of-care testing (POCT) applications, due to UCNPs' features of high photostability and background-free fluorescence. Ceaseless improvements of UCNPs-probes have been carried out to increase detection sensitivity and to broaden detection range of UCNPs-based POCT. In this paper, we optimized UCNPs-probes by regulating probe density. The optimization was verified by a traditional lateral flow assay (LFA) platform for C-reactive protein (CRP) detection. Further, the optimized UCNPs-LFA integrating with a home-made benchtop fluorescence analyzer holds the capability to achieve high-performance POCT. Finally, nearly a 20 times sensitivity enhancement with a limit of detection of 0.046 ng/mL and a broad detection range of 0.2-300 ng/mL for CRP detection was obtained. Moreover, the optimized UCNPs-LFA was applied to detecting CRP in clinical serum samples and the detection results were consistent with the clinical test, validating its clinical practicability. The proposed optimization method is also expected to optimize other nanoparticles-based bio-probes for wider POCT application.

Abstract
The detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), the third gas signaling molecule, is a promising strategy for identifying the occurrence of certain diseases. However, the conventional single- or dual-signal detection can introduce false-positive or false-negative results, which ultimately decreases the diagnostic accuracy. To address this limitation, we developed a luminescent, photothermal, and electrochemical triple-signal detection platform by optically trapping the synthetic highly doped upconversion coupled SiO2 microbeads coated with metal-organic frameworks H-UCNP-SiO2@HKUST-1 (H-USH) to detect the concentration of H2S. The H-USH was first synthesized and proved to have stable structure and excellent luminescent, photothermal, and electrochemical properties. Under 980 nm optical trapping and 808 nm irradiation, H-USH showed great detection linearity, a low limit of detection, and high specificity for H2S quantification via triple-signal detection. Moreover, H-USH was captured by optical tweezers to realize quantitative detection of H2S content in serum of acute pancreatitis and spontaneously hypertensive rats. Finally, by analyzing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, we concluded that triple-signal detection of H2S was more accurate than single- or dual-signal detection, which overcame the problem of false-negative/positive results in the detection of H2S in actual serum samples.

Abstract
Accurate COVID-19 screening via molecular technologies is still hampered by bulky instrumentation, complicated procedure, high cost, lengthy testing time, and the need for specialized personnel. Herein, we develop point-of-care upconversion luminescence diagnostics (PULD), and a streamlined smartphone-based portable platform facilitated by a ready-to-use assay for rapid SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) gene testing. With the complementary oligo-modified upconversion nanoprobes and gold nanoprobes specifically hybridized with the target N gene, the luminescence resonance energy transfer effect leads to a quenching of fluorescence intensity that can be detected by the easy-to-use diagnostic system. A remarkable detection limit of 11.46 fM is achieved in this diagnostic platform without the need of target amplification, demonstrating high sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio of the assay. The capability of the developed PULD is further assessed by probing 9 RT-qPCR-validated SARS-CoV-2 variant clinical samples (B.1.1.529/Omicron) within 20 min, producing reliable diagnostic results consistent with those obtained from a standard fluorescence spectrometer. Importantly, PULD is capable of identifying the positive COVID-19 samples with superior sensitivity and specificity, making it a promising front-line tool for rapid, high-throughput screening and infection control of COVID-19 or other infectious diseases.

Abstract
Fluorescent lateral flow immunoassay (FLFIA) is widely used mainly because of its low cost and instant detection. Its limit of detection (LOD) is closely related to fluorescence signals, and the development of fluorescence signals with fine performance remains a challenge. In this work, dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSNs) were used as fine carriers due to their large pore size and stable performance. We successfully synthesized carbon dots (CDs) with a 560 nm maximum emission wavelength (CD560) by the hydrothermal method. A new type of fluorescence signal for FLFIA was observed by loading CD560 on DMSNs through the Si-O bond which is denoted as DMSNs@CD560. Applying DMSNs@CD560 to the FLFIA can eliminate the influence of interfacial background blue fluorescence thus improving its detection sensitivity. The formed DMSNs@CD560-FLFIA achieved high sensitivity detection of ovarian cancer biomarkers carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymal protein 4 (HE4). The LOD of CA125 is 0.5 U mL-1 and the correlation coefficient R2 = 0.985, and the LOD of HE4 reaches 0.05 ng mL-1 and the correlation coefficient R2 = 0.981. The DMSNs@CD560-FLFIA is sensitive and efficient providing a new method for the early diagnosis of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Early tumor diagnosis could reliably predict the behavior of tumors and significantly reduce their mortality. Due to the response to early cancerous changes at the molecular or cellular level, tumor biomarkers, including small molecules, proteins, nucleic acids, exosomes, and circulating tumor cells, have been employed as powerful tools for early cancer diagnosis. Therefore, exploring new approaches to detect tumor biomarkers has attracted a great deal of research interest. Lanthanide upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) provide numerous opportunities for bioanalytical applications. When excited by low-energy near-infrared light, UCNPs exhibit several unique properties, such as large anti-Stoke shifts, sharp emission lines, long luminescence lifetimes, resistance to photobleaching, and the absence of autofluorescence. Based on these excellent properties, UCNPs have demonstrated great sensitivity and selectivity in detecting tumor biomarkers. In this review, an overview of recent advances in tumor biomarker detection using UCNPs has been presented. The key aspects of this review include detection mechanisms, applications in vitro and in vivo, challenges, and perspectives of UCNP-based tumor biomarker detection.

Abstract
Various infectious viruses have been posing a major threat to global public health, especially SARS-CoV-2, which has already claimed more than six million lives up to now. Tremendous efforts have been made to develop effective techniques for rapid and reliable pathogen detection. The unique characteristics of upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) pose numerous advantages when employed in biosensors, and they are a promising candidate for virus detection. Herein, this Review will discuss the recent advancement in the UCNP-based biosensors for virus and biomarkers detection. We summarize four basic principles that guide the design of UCNP-based biosensors, which are utilized with luminescent or electric responses as output signals. These strategies under fundamental mechanisms facilitate the enhancement of the sensitivity of UCNP-based biosensors. Moreover, a detailed discussion and benefits of applying UCNP in various virus bioassays will be presented. We will also address some obstacles in these detection techniques and suggest routes for progress in the field. These progressions will undoubtedly pose UCNP-based biosensors in a prominent position for providing a convenient, alternative approach to virus detection.

Abstract
The spread of viral diseases has caused global concern in recent years. Detecting viral infections has become challenging in medical research due to their high infectivity and mutation. A rapid and accurate detection method in biomedical and healthcare segments is essential for the effective treatment of pathogenic viruses and early detection of these viruses. Biosensors are used worldwide to detect viral infections associated with the molecular detection of biomarkers. Thus, detecting viruses based on quantum dots biomarkers is inexpensive and has great potential. To detect the ultrasensitive biomarkers of viral infections, QDs appear to be a promising option as biological probes, while physiological components have been used directly to detect multiple biomarkers simultaneously. The simultaneous measurement of numerous clinical parameters of the same sample volume is possible through multiplex detection of human viral infections, which reduces the time and cost required to record any data point. The purpose of this paper is to review recent studies on the effectiveness of the quantum dot as a detection tool for human pandemic viruses. In this review study, different types of quantum dots and their valuable properties in the structure of biomarkers were investigated. Finally, a vision for recent advances in quantum dot-based biomarkers was presented, whereby they can be integrated into super-sensitive probes for the multiplex detection of human viral infections.

Abstract
Information encoding security has always been a research hotspot in the optical field. Although many studies focused on luminescent materials and techniques for information security, the optical information encoding is limited by low information capacity and security. Herein, we present new core-shell-shell (CSS) lanthanide-doped nanocrystals which display multi-stimuli-responsive and multimode emission. In the designed CSS nanostructure, the Stokes and anti-Stokes processes can be both achieved in the same nanocrystals under the excitation of 1532, 980, and 254 nm via self-excited Er3+ and Ce3+ -sensitized mechanisms. Subsequently, a group of unique multimode emission CSS nanocrystals were designed as optical modules and successfully utilized in multidimensional information encoding, which demonstrates high-level information encoding capability and security. This work brings a powerful idea for information encoding security designs based on multimode luminesce materials.

Abstract
Surface engineering of upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) is crucial for their bioanalytical applications. Here, an antibody specific to cardiac troponin I (cTnI), an important biomarker for acute myocardial infection, was covalently immobilized on the surface of UCNPs to prepare a label for the detection of cTnI biomarker in an upconversion-linked immunoassay (ULISA). Core-shell UCNPs (NaYF4:Yb,Tm@NaYF4) were first coated with poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic acid) (PMVEMA) and then conjugated to antibodies. The morphology (size and uniformity), hydrodynamic diameter, chemical composition, and amount of coating on the of UCNPs, as well as their upconversion luminescence, colloidal stability, and leaching of Y3+ ions into the surrounding media, were determined. The developed ULISA allowed reaching a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.13 ng/ml and 0.25 ng/ml of cTnI in plasma and serum, respectively, which represents 12- and 2-fold improvement to conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent based on the same immunoreagents.

Abstract
In traditional lateral flow immunoassays (LFIA) for pathogens detection, capture antibody (CA) is necessary and usually conjugated to Au nanoparticles (NPs) in order to label the target analyte. However, the acquisition process of the Au-CA nanoprobe is relatively complicated and costly, which will limit the application of LFIA. Herein, p-mercaptophenylboronic acid-modified Au NPs (namely Au-PMBA nanocrabs), were synthesized and applied for a new CA-independent LFIA method. The stable Au-PMBA nanocrabs showed outstanding capability to capture both Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive bacteria through covalent bonding. The acquired Au-PMBA-bacteria complexes were dropped onto the strip, and then captured by the detection antibody on the test line (T-line). Take Escherichia coli O157:H7 as an example, the gray value of T-line was proportional to the bacteria concentration and the linear range was 103-107 cfu·mL-1. This CA-independent strategy exhibited higher sensitivity than the traditional CA-dependent double antibody sandwich method, because detection limit of the former one was 103 cfu·mL-1 only by visual observation, which was reduced by 3 orders of magnitude. Besides, this platform successfully screened E. coli O157:H7 in four food samples with recoveries ranging from 90.25% to 107.25%. This CA-independent LFIA showed great advantages and satisfactory potential for rapid foodborne pathogens detection in real samples.

Abstract
Due to the similar clinical symptoms of influenza (Flu) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), there is a looming infection threat of concurrent Flu viruses and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). In this work, we introduce a customized isothermal amplification integrated lateral flow strip (LFS) that is capable performing duplex reverse transcription–recombinase polymerase amplification (RT-RPA) and colorimetric LFS in a sequential manner. With customized amplification primer sets targeted to SARS-CoV-2 (opening reading frame 1a/b and nucleoprotein genes) and Flu viruses (Flu A and Flu B), the platform allows the rapid and simultaneous visual screening of SARS-CoV-2 and Flu viruses (Flu A and Flu B) without cross reactivity, false positives, and false negatives. Moreover, it maximally eases the detection, reduces the detection time (1 h), and improves the assay performance to detect as low as 10 copies of the viral RNA. Its clinical application is powerfully demonstrated with 100% accuracy for evaluating 15 SARS-CoV-2-positive clinical samples, 10 Flu viruses-positive clinical samples, and 5 negative clinical samples, which were pre-confirmed by standard qRT-PCR. We envision this portable device can meet the increasing need of online monitoring the serious infectious diseases that substantially affects health care systems worldwide.

Abstract
The lateral flow assay (LFA) is a point-of-care diagnostic test commonly available in an over-the-counter format because of its simplicity, speed, low cost, and portability. The reporter particles in these assays are among their most significant components because they perform the diagnostic readout and dictate the test's sensitivity. Today, gold nanoparticles are frequently used as reporters, but recent work focusing on photoluminescent-based reporter technologies has pushed LFAs to better performance. These efforts have focused specifically on reporters made of organic fluorophores, quantum dots, lanthanide chelates, persistent luminescent phosphors, and upconversion phosphors. In most cases, photoluminescent reporters show enhanced sensitivity compared to conventional gold nanoparticle-based assays. Here, we examine the advantages and disadvantages of these different reporters and highlight their potential benefits in LFAs. Our assessment shows that photoluminescent-based LFAs can not only reach lower detection limits than LFAs with traditional reporters, but they also can be capable of quantitative and multiplex analyte detection. As a result, the photoluminescent reporters make LFAs well-suited for medical diagnostics, the food and agricultural industry, and environmental testing.

Abstract
The emerging optical multiplexing within nanoscale shows super-capacity in encoding information by using lifetime fingerprints from luminescent nanoparticles. However, the optical diffraction limit compromises the decoding accuracy and throughput of the nanoparticles during conventional widefield imaging. This, in turn, challenges the quality of nanoparticles to afford the modulated excitation condition and further retain the multiplexed optical fingerprints for super-resolution multiplexing. Here we report a tailor-made multiplexed super-resolution imaging method using the lifetime-engineered upconversion nanoparticles. We demonstrate that the nanoparticles are bright, uniform, and stable under structured illumination, which supports a lateral resolution of 185 nm, less than 1/4th of the excitation wavelength. We further develop a deep learning algorithm to coordinate with super-resolution images for more accurate decoding compared to a numeric algorithm. We demonstrate a three-channel super-resolution imaging based optical multiplexing with decoding accuracies above 93% for each channel and larger than 60% accuracy for potential seven-channel multiplexing. The improved resolution provides high throughput by resolving the particles within the diffraction-limited spots, which enables higher multiplexing capacity in space. This lifetime multiplexing super-resolution method opens a new horizon for handling the growing amount of information content, disease source, and security risk in modern society.

Abstract
Almost from the time of its discovery, the prostate specific antigen (PSA) has been one of the most accurate and most extensively studied indicators of prostate cancer (PC). Because of advancements in biosensing systems and technology, PSA analysis methods have been substantially updated and enhanced as compared to their first instances. With the development of techniques in biosensor technology, the number of PSA biosensors that can be used in the biomedical sector is increasing year by year. Many different recognition elements and transducers have been used in the development of biosensor systems that exhibit high sensitivity, selectivity, and specificity. Here in this review, we provide a current overview of the different approaches to PSA detection.

Abstract
Sensitive and quantitative detection of molecular biomarkers is crucial for the early diagnosis of diseases like metabolic syndrome and cancer. Here we present a single-molecule sandwich immunoassay by imaging the number of single nanoparticles to diagnose aggressive prostate cancer. Our assay employed the photo-stable upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) as labels to detect the four types of circulating antigens in blood circulation, including glypican-1 (GPC-1), leptin, osteopontin (OPN), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), as their serum concentrations indicate aggressive prostate cancer. Under a wide-field microscope, a single UCNP doped with thousands of lanthanide ions can emit sufficiently bright anti-Stokes' luminescence to become quantitatively detectable. By counting every single streptavidin-functionalized UCNP which specifically labeled on each sandwich immune complex across multiple fields of views, we achieved the Limit of Detection (LOD) of 0.0123 ng/ml, 0.2711 ng/ml, 0.1238 ng/ml, and 0.0158 ng/ml for GPC-1, leptin, OPN and VEGF, respectively. The serum circulating level of GPC-1, leptin, OPN, and VEGF in a mixture of 10 healthy normal human serum was 25.17 ng/ml, 18.04 ng/ml, 11.34 ng/ml, and 1.55 ng/ml, which was within the assay dynamic detection range for each analyte. Moreover, a 20% increase of GPC-1 and OPN was observed by spiking the normal human serum with recombinant antigens to confirm the accuracy of the assay. We observed no cross-reactivity among the four biomarker analytes, which eliminates the false positives and enhances the detection accuracy. The developed single upconversion nanoparticle-assisted single-molecule assay suggests its potential in clinical usage for prostate cancer detection by monitoring tiny concentration differences in a panel of serum biomarkers.

Abstract
The control in optical uniformity of single nanoparticles and tuning their diversity in multiple dimensions, dot to dot, holds the key to unlocking nanoscale applications. Here we report that the entire lifetime profile of the single upconversion nanoparticle (τ2 profile) can be resolved by confocal, wide-field, and super-resolution microscopy techniques. The advances in both spatial and temporal resolutions push the limit of optical multiplexing from microscale to nanoscale. We further demonstrate that the time-domain optical fingerprints can be created by utilizing nanophotonic upconversion schemes, including interfacial energy migration, concentration dependency, energy transfer, and isolation of surface quenchers. We exemplify that three multiple dimensions, including the excitation wavelength, emission color, and τ2 profile, can be built into the nanoscale derivative τ2-dots. Creating a vast library of individually preselectable nanotags opens up a new horizon for diverse applications, spanning from sub-diffraction-limit data storage to high-throughput single-molecule digital assays and super-resolution imaging.

Abstract
Measurement of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) should be feasible for point-of-care testing (POCT) to diagnose acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) have been long implemented in POCT and clinical settings. However, sensitivity, matrix effect and quantitation in lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) have been major limiting factors. The performance of LFIAs can be improved with upconverting nanoparticle (UCNP) reporters. Here we report a new methodological approach to quantify cTnI using UCNP-LFIA technology with minimized plasma interference. The performance of the developed UCNP-LFIA was evaluated using clinical plasma samples (n = 262). The developed UCNP-LFIA was compared to two reference assays, the Siemens Advia Centaur assay and an in-house well-based cTnI assay. By introducing an anti-IgM scrub line and dried EDTA in the LFIA strip, the detection of cTnI in plasma samples was fully recovered. The UCNP-LFIA was able to quantify cTnI concentrations in patient samples within the range of 30-10,000 ng/L. The LoB and LoD of the UCNP-LFIA were 8.4 ng/L and 30 ng/L. The method comparisons showed good correlation (Spearman's correlation 0.956 and 0.949, p < 0.0001). The developed UCNP-LFIA had LoD suitable for ruling in AMI in patients with elevated cTnI levels and was able to quantify cTnI concentrations in patient samples. The technology has potential to provide simple and rapid assay for POCT in ED setting.

Abstract
Lateral Flow Assays (LFAs) have been extensively used on-site to rapidly detect analytes, possibly in complex media. However, standard gold nanoparticle-based LFAs lack sensitivity and cannot provide quantitative measurements with high accuracy. To overcome these limitations, we image lanthanide-doped nanoparticles (YVO4:Eu 40%) as new luminescent LFA probes, using a homemade reader coupled to a smartphone and propose an original image analysis allowing strip quantification regardless of the shape of the test band signal. This method is demonstrated for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxins SEA, SEG, SEH, and SEI. A systematic comparison to state-of-the-art gold nanoparticle-based LFA revealed an analytical sensitivity enhancement of at least one order of magnitude. We furthermore provided measurements of absolute toxin concentration over two orders of magnitude and demonstrated simultaneous quantitative detection of multiple toxins with unaltered sensitivity. In particular, we reached concentrations 100 times lower than the ones reported in the literature for on-site multiplexed LFA targeting enterotoxins. Altogether, these results highlight that our luminescent nanoparticle-based method provides a powerful and versatile on-site framework to detect multiple biomolecules with sensitivity approaching that obtained by ELISA. This paves the way to a change of paradigm in the field of analytical immunoassays by providing fast in situ quantitative high sensitivity detection of biomarkers or pathogens.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), known as a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, has had a terrible impact on the health of aged people. Due to its severity, early diagnosis of AD is significant to retard the progress and provide timely treatment. Here, we report a fluorescence ratio detection of AD biomarker amyloid β oligomers (AβOs) by combining highly doped upconversion nanoparticles-SiO2@metal-organic framework/black hole quencher (H-USM/BHQ-1) microspheres with optical tweezer (OT) microscopic imaging. Optical trapping a single microsphere not only avoids the interference of fluid viscosity but also provides a high power density laser source to efficiently stimulate upconversion luminescence (UCL) of highly doped upconversion nanoparticles (H-UCNPs). Under this condition, H-UCNPs show stronger UCL and greater power-dependent properties compared to low-doped ones. Moreover, the closely packed quenching molecules BHQ-1 on a metal-organic framework (ZIF-8) exhibit excellent quenching efficiency for upconversion 525 and 540 nm emission. Also, the luminescent resonance energy transfer efficiency reaches 89.58%. When different concentrations of AβOs are present, the UCL540 recovers due to the decomposition of ZIF-8 and the release of BHQ-1. Using 540 and 654 nm emission ratio of highly doped UCNPs as reporters, the limit of detection reaches 28.4 pM for the quantitative determination of AβOs. Besides, this strategy is able to selectively quantify the AβO concentration. Therefore, we demonstrated the combination of optical trapping and highly doped UCNPs which is applied for the detection of AβOs with high sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have emerged as promising luminescent nanomaterials due to their unique features that allow the overcoming of several problems associated with conventional fluorescent probes. Although UCNPs have been used in a broad range of applications, it is probably in the field of sensing where they best evidence their potential. UCNP-based sensors have been designed with high sensitivity and selectivity, for detection and quantification of multiple analytes ranging from metal ions to biomolecules. In this review, we deeply explore the use of UCNPs in sensing systems emphasizing the most relevant and recent studies on the topic and explaining how these platforms are constructed. Before diving into UCNP-based sensing platforms it is important to understand the unique characteristics of these nanoparticles, why they are attracting so much attention, and the most significant interactions occurring between UCNPs and additional probes. These points are covered over the first two sections of the article and then we explore the types of fluorescent responses, the possible analytes, and the UCNPs' integration with various material types such as gold nanostructures, quantum dots and dyes. All the topics are supported by analysis of recently reported sensors, focusing on how they are built, the materials' interactions, the involved synthesis and functionalization mechanisms, and the conjugation strategies. Finally, we explore the use of UCNPs in paper-based sensors and how these platforms are paving the way for the development of new point-of-care devices.

Abstract
The development of reliable and robust diagnostic tests is one of the most efficient methods to limit the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, most laboratory diagnostics for COVID-19, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), are expensive, time-consuming, and require highly trained professional operators. On the other hand, the lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is a simpler, cheaper device that can be operated by unskilled personnel easily. Unfortunately, the current technique has some limitations, mainly inaccuracy in detection. This review article aims to highlight recent advances in novel lateral flow technologies for detecting SARS-CoV-2 as well as innovative approaches to achieve highly sensitive and specific point-of-care testing. Lastly, we discuss future perspectives on how smartphones and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be integrated to revolutionize disease detection as well as disease control and surveillance.

Abstract
Research related to the development and application of luminescent nanoparticles (LNPs) for chemical and biological analysis and imaging is flourishing. Novel materials and new applications continue to be reported after two decades of research. This review provides a comprehensive and heuristic overview of this field. It is targeted to both newcomers and experts who are interested in a critical assessment of LNP materials, their properties, strengths and weaknesses, and prospective applications. Numerous LNP materials are cataloged by fundamental descriptions of their chemical identities and physical morphology, quantitative photoluminescence (PL) properties, PL mechanisms, and surface chemistry. These materials include various semiconductor quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene derivatives, carbon dots, nanodiamonds, luminescent metal nanoclusters, lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles and downshifting nanoparticles, triplet-triplet annihilation nanoparticles, persistent-luminescence nanoparticles, conjugated polymer nanoparticles and semiconducting polymer dots, multi-nanoparticle assemblies, and doped and labeled nanoparticles, including but not limited to those based on polymers and silica. As an exercise in the critical assessment of LNP properties, these materials are ranked by several application-related functional criteria. Additional sections highlight recent examples of advances in chemical and biological analysis, point-of-care diagnostics, and cellular, tissue, and in vivo imaging and theranostics. These examples are drawn from the recent literature and organized by both LNP material and the particular properties that are leveraged to an advantage. Finally, a perspective on what comes next for the field is offered.

Abstract
When analyzing biological phenomena and processes, multiplexed biodetection has many advantages over single-factor biodetection and is highly relevant to both human health issues and advancements in the life sciences. However, many key problems with current multiplexed biodetection strategies remain unresolved. Herein, the main issues are analyzed and summarized: 1) generating sufficient signal to label targets, 2) improving the signal-to-noise ratio to ensure total detection sensitivity, and 3) simplifying the detection process to reduce the time and labor costs of multiple target detection. Then, available solutions made possible by designing and controlling the properties of micro- and nanomaterials are introduced. The aim is to emphasize the role that micro-/nanomaterials can play in the improvement of multiplexed biodetection strategies. Through analyzing existing problems, introducing state-of-the-art developments regarding relevant materials, and discussing future directions of the field, it is hopeful to help promote necessary developments in multiplexed biodetection and associated scientific research.

Abstract
For lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), it is an important challenge to enhance the detection sensitivity to the same level as polymerase chain reaction or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to make LFIA pervasive in the field of on-site environmental analysis. We recently demonstrated that the LFIA sensitivity is dramatically enhanced by using Pt-nanoparticle-latex nanocomposite beads (Pt-P2VPs) as probes for the detection of the influenza A (H1N1) antigen compared with using conventional Au colloids as probes. Here, to further enhance the LFIA sensitivity using Pt-P2VPs, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) were chemically conjugated to Pt-P2VPs (Pt-P2VP@SPION) to give them magnetic separation capability (enrichment and/or purification). To investigate the effect of magnetic enrichment on the LFIA sensitivity in a sandwich format, the C-reactive protein (CRP) was chosen as a model analyte and anti-CRP antibody (CRPAb)-conjugated Pt-P2VP@SPION (Pt-P2VP@SPION-CRPAb) beads were used as probes. The visual limit of detection (LOD) of LFIA was successfully lowered by increasing the magnetic enrichment factor φ. The minimum LOD under the present experimental conditions was 0.08 ng/mL for φ = 40, which is 26-fold lower than that of the standard Au-nanoparticle-based LFIA. In theory, the LOD can be unlimitedly decreased by just increasing φ. However, the times required for both the antigen-antibody binding reaction and magnetic separation dramatically increase with φ. We also propose solutions to overcome this drawback.

Herein, we provide a systematic insight into the effect of the chain length of poly(oligo (ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate) (POEGMEA) containing polyethylene glycol on the colloidal stability and antibody-conjugation efficiency of nanoparticles. We employed Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) to design diblock copolymers composed of 7 monoacryloxyethyl phosphate (MAEP) units and 6, 13, 35, or 55 OEGMEA units. We find that when the POEGMEA chain is short, the polymer cannot effectively stabilize the nanoparticles, and when the POEGMEA chain is long, the nanoparticles cannot be efficiently conjugated to antibody. In other words, the majority of the carboxylic groups in larger POEGMEA chains are inaccessible to further chemical modification. We demonstrate that the polymer containing 13 OEGMEA units can effectively bind up to 64% of the antibody molecules, while the binding efficiency drops to 50% and 0% for the polymer containing 35 and 55 OEGMEA units. Moreover, flow cytometry assay statistically shows that about 9% of the coupled antibody retained its activity to recognize B220 biomarkers on the B cells. This work suggests a library of stabile, specific, and bioactive lanthanide-doped nanoconjugates for flow cytometry and mass cytometry application.

Abstract
Temperature dynamics reflect the physiological conditions of cells and organisms. Mitochondria regulate the temperature dynamics in living cells as they oxidize the respiratory substrates and synthesize ATP, with heat being released as a byproduct of active metabolism. Here, we report an upconversion nanoparticle-based thermometer that allows the in situ thermal dynamics monitoring of mitochondria in living cells. We demonstrate that the upconversion nanothermometers can efficiently target mitochondria, and the temperature-responsive feature is independent of probe concentration and medium conditions. The relative sensing sensitivity of 3.2% K-1 in HeLa cells allows us to measure the mitochondrial temperature difference through the stimulations of high glucose, lipid, Ca2+ shock, and the inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation. Moreover, cells display distinct response time and thermodynamic profiles under different stimulations, which highlight the potential applications of this thermometer to study in situ vital processes related to mitochondrial metabolism pathways and interactions between organelles.

Abstract
Early and timely diagnosis of cancer plays a decisive role in appropriate treatment and improves clinical outcomes, improving public health. Significant advances in biosensor technologies are leading to the development of point-of-care (POC) diagnostics, making the testing process faster, easier, cost-effective, and suitable for on-site measurements. Moreover, the incorporation of various nanomaterials into the sensing platforms has yielded POC testing (POCT) platforms with enhanced sensitivity, cost-effectiveness and simplified detection schemes. POC cancer diagnostic devices provide promising platforms for cancer biomarker detection as compared to conventional in vitro diagnostics, which are time-consuming and require sophisticated instrumentation, centralized laboratories, and experienced operators. Current innovative approaches in POC technologies, including biosensors, smartphone interfaces, and lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices are expected to quickly transform the healthcare landscape. However, only a few cancer POC devices (e.g. lateral flow platforms) have been translated from research laboratories to clinical care, likely due to challenges include sampling procedures, low levels of sensitivity and specificity in clinical samples, system integration and signal readout requirements. In this review, we emphasize recent advances in POC diagnostic devices for cancer biomarker detection and discuss the critical challenges which must be surmounted to facilitate their translation into clinical settings.
