Abstract
An ultrasensitive method for the visual detection of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cell lysates using a gold nanorod-based lateral flow nucleic acid biosensor (GN-LFNAB) and exonuclease III (Exo III)-assisted signal amplification. The Exo III-catalyzed target recycling strategy is employed to generate a large number of single-strand DNA products, which can be detected by GN-LFNAB visually. With the implementation of a unique recycling strategy, we have demonstrated that the miRNA in the concentration as low as 0.5 pM can be detected without the need for instrumentation, providing a detection limit that surpasses previous reports. The new biosensor is ultrasensitive and can be applied to the reliable monitoring of miRNAs in cell lysates with high accuracy. The approach offers a simple and rapid tool for cancer diagnosis and clinical biomedicine, thanks to its flexibility, simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and convenience. This new method has the potential to significantly improve the detection and monitoring of cancer biomarkers, ultimately contributing to more effective cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and zearalenone (ZEN) are two mycotoxins that often co-occur in corn. A surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based lateral flow immunoassay (SERS-LFIA) that can simultaneously detect AFB1 and ZEN in corn samples was developed employing the core-interlayer-satellite magnetic nanocomposites (Fe3O4@PEI/AuMBA@AgMBA) as dual-functional SERS tags. Under the optimal conditions, the detection ranges of AFB1 and ZEN in corn samples were 0.1-10 μg/kg and 4-400 μg/kg, respectively. Moreover, the test results for two mycotoxins in contaminated corn samples employing the suggested SERS-LFIA was in line with those of the HPLC technique. In view of its satisfactory sensitivity, accuracy, precision and short testing time (20 min), the developed system has a promising application prospect in the on-site simultaneous detection of AFB1 and ZEN.

Abstract
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are a popular method for quick and affordable diagnostic testing because they are easy to use, portable, and user-friendly. However, LFA design has always faced challenges regarding sensitivity, accuracy, and complexity of the operation. By integrating new technologies and reagents, the sensitivity and accuracy of LFAs can be improved while minimizing the complexity and potential for false positives. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), photoacoustic techniques, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and the integration of smartphones and thermal readers can improve LFA accuracy and sensitivity. To ensure reliable and accurate results, careful assay design and validation, appropriate controls, and optimization of assay conditions are necessary. Continued innovation in LFA technology is crucial to improving the reliability and accuracy of rapid diagnostic testing and expanding its applications to various areas, such as food testing, water quality monitoring, and environmental testing.

Abstract
Accurate and rapid detection of the influenza A virus (FluA) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can effectively control their spread. We developed a colorimetric and fluorescent dual-functional two-channel immunochromatographic assay (ICA) biosensor to simultaneously detect the above-mentioned viruses. A unique two-dimensional Ti3C2-QD immunoprobe was established by adsorbing dense quantum dots (QDs) onto the light green monostromatic Ti3C2 MXene surface, resulting in light green colorimetric and superior fluorescence signals and guaranteeing high sensitivity, stability, and excellent liquidity for ICA detection. Rapid visual screening for FluA and SARS-CoV-2 infections was applicable via a green colorimetric signal. Sensitive and quantitative detection of viruses in their early stages of infection was performed by using the fluorescence signal. Our proposed Ti3C2-QD-ICA biosensor can simultaneously detect 1 ng/mL or 2.4 pg/mL FluA and 1 ng/mL or 6.2 pg/mL SARS-CoV-2 via its colorimetric or fluorescence signals, respectively, with a short testing time (20 min), good reproducibility, specificity, and accuracy. In addition, this method demonstrated sensitivity higher than that of the conventional AuNP-based ICA method in throat swab samples. Hence, our proposed Ti3C2-QD-ICA method can be potentially applied for the rapid, ultrasensitive, and multiplex detection of respiratory viruses.

Ultrasensitive and point-of-care detection of plasma phosphorylated tau in Alzheimer's disease using colorimetric and surface-enhanced Raman scattering dual-readout lateral flow assay.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of tau at Ser (396, 404) (p-tau396,404) is one of the earliest phosphorylation events, and plasma p-tau396,404 level appears to be a potentially promising biomarker of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The low abundance and easy degradation of p-tau in the plasma make the lateral flow assay (LFA) a suitable choice for point-of-care detection of plasma p-tau396,404 levels. Herein, based on our screening of a pair of p-tau396,404-specific antibodies, we developed a colorimetric and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) dual-readout LFA for the rapid, highly sensitive, and robust detection of plasma p-tau396,404 levels. This LFA realized a detection limit of 60 pg/mL by the naked eye or 3.8 pg/mL by SERS without cross-reacting with other tau species. More importantly, LFA rapidly and accurately differentiated AD patients from healthy controls, suggesting that it has the potential for clinical point-of-care application in AD diagnosis. This dual-readout LFA has the advantages of simple operation, rapid, and ultra-sensitive detection, providing a new way for early AD diagnosis and intervention, especially in primary and community AD screening.

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
Because of their simplicity, rapidity, and cost-effectiveness, immunochromatographic strips (ICTs) have been widely used as an effective tool in various fields. However, typical strips for the preliminary screening suffer from limited detection sensitivity, particularly in biomarker detection with trace concentration. Herein, to tackle this challenge, we integrated homemade gold-decorated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Au/Fe3O4 NPs) with flexible strips, exploring the excellent peroxidase-like activity of this labeled material, and then enhancing the detection sensitivity via signal amplification. The limit of detection (LOD) of the strips is as low as 0.05 mIU mL-1 when human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is as a biomarker model, which is 500 times lower than that of the traditional color-based strip. Overall, our results demonstrated the potential for Au/Fe3O4 NP based-ICTs for the rapid detection of the biomarker in an instrument-free and point-of-care testing format.

Abstract
Biosensors have been used for a remarkable array of applications, including infectious diseases, environmental monitoring, cancer diagnosis, food safety, and numerous others. In particular, the global COVID-19 pandemic has exposed a need for rapid tests, so the type of biosensor that has gained considerable interest recently are immunoassays, which are used for rapid diagnostics. The performance of paper-based lateral flow and dipstick immunoassays is influenced by the physical properties of the nanoparticles (NPs), NP-antibody conjugates, and paper substrate. Many materials innovations have enhanced diagnostics by increasing sensitivity or enabling unique readouts. However, negative side effects can arise at the interface between the biological sample and biomolecules and the NP or paper substrate, such as non-specific adsorption and protein denaturation. In this Perspective, we discuss the immunoassay components and highlight chemistry and materials innovations that can improve sensitivity. We also explore the range of bio-interface issues that can present challenges for immunoassays.

Abstract
![]()
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are currently the most used
point-of-care
sensors for both diagnostic (e.g., pregnancy test, COVID-19 monitoring)
and environmental (e.g., pesticides and bacterial monitoring) applications.
Although the core of LFA technology was developed several decades
ago, in recent years the integration of novel nanomaterials as signal
transducers or receptor immobilization platforms has brought improved
analytical capabilities. In this Review, we present how nanomaterial-based
LFAs can address the inherent challenges of point-of-care (PoC) diagnostics
such as sensitivity enhancement, lowering of detection limits, multiplexing,
and quantification of analytes in complex samples. Specifically, we
highlight the strategies that can synergistically solve the limitations
of current LFAs and that have proven commercial feasibility. Finally,
we discuss the barriers toward commercialization and the next generation
of LFAs.

Abstract
In this work, a lateral flow (LF)-based detection strategy termed magnetic control-enhanced LFA (MCLF) was proposed to detect nucleic acid sequences at attomolar sensitivity. In the proposed MCLF method, magnetic controllers which are magnetic nanoparticles modified with antibodies against the labels on capture sequences were used to interact with the unreacted labeled capture sequence (CS-label) to improve the detection limit. By regulating the movement of magnetic probes (magnetic controllers) with a simple magnet under the lateral flow strip, the movement of magnetic probes bounded with unreacted CS-label in the sample flow could be reduced. Therefore, the target sequence-containing sandwich structures will arrive at the test zone prior, to interact with the recognition ligands, whereby the capture efficiency of the sandwich structures could be increased because the unreacted capture sequences at the test zone will be reduced. With the colorimetric signal from gold nanoparticle-based probes, the proposed MCLF technique could recognize as low as 100 aM of DNA target sequences by naked eyes, and the responding range of MCLF is from 100 aM to 10 pM.

They are limited, however, by their lack of sensitivity and inability to incorporate more complex processes, such as nucleic acid amplification or enzymatic signal enhancement. To address these limitations, various valves have previously been implemented in paper-fluidic devices to control fluid obstruction and release. However, incorporation of valves into new devices is a highly iterative, time-intensive process due to limited experimental data describing the microscale flow that drives the biophysical reactions in the assay. In this paper, we tested and modeled different geometries of thermally actuated valves to investigate how they can be more easily implemented in an LFIA with precise control of actuation time, flow rate, and flow pattern. We demonstrate that bulk flow measurements alone cannot estimate the highly variable microscale properties and effects on LFIA signal development. To further quantify the microfluidic properties of paper-fluidic devices, micro-particle image velocimetry was used to quantify fluorescent nanoparticle flow through the membranes and demonstrated divergent properties from bulk flow that may explain additional variability in LFIA signal generation. Altogether, we demonstrate that a more robust characterization of paper-fluidic devices can permit fine-tuning of parameters for precise automation of multi-step assays and inform analytical models for more efficient design.

Abstract
High-throughput single-cell analysis is critical to elucidate the cell heterogeneity. Recently, droplet microchips using oil/gas phases to generate single-cell encapsulated droplets have been combined with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for determination of trace elements in single cells with a throughput of dozens of cells per min. To improve the sample throughput and avoid the oil phase introduced into ICP-MS, herein, a negative magnetophoresis focusing microchip was established and online-coupled to ICP-MS for single-cell analysis. MCF-7 cells in the paramagnetic salt solution were introduced into the designed focusing microchannel, in which they were focused into a single stream under both the magnetic repulsion force and inertial lift force, and then were introduced into ICP-MS for online single-cell analysis. The important parameters including the chip design, the concentration of the paramagnetic salt solution, flow rate, cell density, and dwell time were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, a high sample throughput of 1390 cells min-1 was obtained. The established online analytical system was applied to study the uptake behaviors of MCF-7 cells for Zn2+ and ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) at a single-cell level. The single-cell analysis results indicate that MCF-7 cells displayed more remarkable heterogeneity when they were treated with ZnO NPs, and the uptake content of ZnO NPs by MCF-7 cells was less than that of Zn2+. Compared with other droplet microdevice-ICP-MS analysis systems, the developed system has the advantages of simple design and fabrication, no organic phase, a high throughput, and a low sample consumption (only 5 μL).

Abstract
Cancer is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Detection and quantification of cancer biomarkers plays a critical role in cancer early diagnosis, screening, and treatment. Clinicians, particularly in developing countries, deal with high costs and limited resources for diagnostic systems. Using low-cost substrates to develop sensor devices could be very helpful. The interest in paper-based sensors with colorimetric detection increased exponentially in the last decade as they meet the criteria for point-of-care (PoC) devices. Cellulose and different nanomaterials have been used as substrate and colorimetric probes, respectively, for these types of devices in their different designs as spot tests, lateral-flow assays, dipsticks, and microfluidic paper-based devices (μPADs), offering low-cost and disposable devices. However, the main challenge with these devices is their low sensitivity and lack of efficiency in performing quantitative measurements. This review includes an overview of the use of paper for the development of sensing devices focusing on colorimetric detection and their application to cancer biomarkers. We highlight recent works reporting the use of paper in the development of colorimetric sensors for cancer biomarkers, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and others. Finally, we discuss the main advantages of these types of devices and highlight their major pitfalls.

Abstract
Rapid, ultrasensitive, and selective quantification of circulating microRNA (miRNA) biomarkers in body fluids is increasingly deployed in early cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy monitoring. While nanoparticle tags enable detection of nucleic acid or protein biomarkers with digital resolution and subfemtomolar detection limits without enzymatic amplification, the response time of these assays is typically dominated by diffusion-limited transport of the analytes or nanotags to the biosensor surface. Here, we present a magnetic activate capture and digital counting (mAC+DC) approach that utilizes magneto-plasmonic nanoparticles (MPNPs) to accelerate single-molecule sensing, demonstrated by miRNA detection via toehold-mediated strand displacement. Spiky Fe3O4@Au MPNPs with immobilized target-specific probes are "activated" by binding with miRNA targets, followed by magnetically driven transport through the bulk fluid toward nanoparticle capture probes on a photonic crystal (PC). By spectrally matching the localized surface plasmon resonance of the MPNPs to the PC-guided resonance, each captured MPNP locally quenches the PC reflection efficiency, thus enabling captured MPNPs to be individually visualized with high contrast for counting. We demonstrate quantification of the miR-375 cancer biomarker directly from unprocessed human serum with a 1 min response time, a detection limit of 61.9 aM, a broad dynamic range (100 aM to 10 pM), and a single-base mismatch selectivity. The approach is well-suited for minimally invasive biomarker quantification, enabling potential applications in point-of-care testing with short sample-to-answer time.

Abstract
In the health domain, a major challenge is the detection of diseases using rapid and cost-effective techniques. Most of the existing cancer detection methods show poor sensitivity and selectivity and are time consuming with high cost. To overcome this challenge, we analyzed porous fabricated metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that have better structures and porosities for enhanced biomarker sensing. Here, we summarize the use of fabricated MOF luminescence and electrochemical sensors in devices for cancer biomarker detection. Various strategies of fabrication and the role of fabricated materials in sensing cancer biomarkers have been studied and described. The structural properties, sensing mechanisms, roles of noncovalent interactions, limits of detection, modeling, advantages, and limitations of MOF sensors have been well-discussed. The study presents an innovative technique to detect the cancer biomarkers by the use of luminescence and electrochemical MOF sensors. In addition, the potential association studies have been opening the way for personalized patient treatments and the development of new cancer-detecting devices.

Abstract
Organophosphates (OPs) are neurotoxic agents also used as pesticides that can permanently block the active site of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE). A robust and sensitive detection system of OPs utilising the enzyme mimic potential of the cysteamine capped gold nanoparticles (C-AuNPs) was developed. The detection assay was performed by stepwise addition of AChE, parathion ethyl (PE)-a candidate OP, acetylcholine chloride (ACh), C-AuNPs, and 3, 3′, 5, 5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the buffer solution. The whole sensing protocol completes in 30–40 min, including both incubations. The Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) results indicated that the NPs are spherical and have an average size of 13.24 nm. The monomers of C-AuNPs exhibited intense catalytic activity (nanozyme) for the oxidization of TMB, revealed by the production of instant blue colour and confirmed by a sharp peak at 652 nm. The proposed biosensor’s detection limit and linear ranges were 5.8 ng·mL−1 and 11.6–92.8 ng·mL−1, respectively, for PE. The results strongly advocate that the suggested facile colorimetric biosensor may provide an excellent platform for on-site monitoring of OPs.

Abstract
Detection methods for monitoring infectious pathogens has never been more important given the need to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Herein we propose a highly sensitive magnetic-focus-enhanced lateral flow assay (mLFA) for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. The proposed mLFA is simple and requires only lateral flow strips and a reusable magnet to detect very low concentrations of the virus particles. The magnetic focus enhancement is achieved by focusing the SARS-CoV-2 conjugated magnetic probes in the sample placed in the lateral flow (LF) strips for improved capture efficiency, while horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was used to catalyze the colorimetric reaction for the amplification of the colorimetric signal. With the magnetic focus enhancement and HRP-based amplification, the mLFA could yield a highly sensitive technology for the recognition of SARS-CoV-2. The developed methods could detect as low as 400 PFU/mL of SARS-CoV-2 in PBS buffer based on the visible blue dots on the LF strips. The mLFA could recognize 1200 PFU/mL of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva samples. With clinical nasal swab samples, the proposed mLFA could achieve 66.7% sensitivity and 100% specificity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cervical cancer remains a significant healthcare problem, notably in low- to middle-income countries. While a negative test for hrHPV has a predictive value of more than 99.5%, its positive predictive value is less than 10% for CIN2+ stages. This makes the use of a so-called triage test indispensable for population-based screening to avoid referring women, that are ultimately at low risk of developing cervical cancer, to a gynecologist. This review will give an overview of tests that are based on epigenetic marker panels and protein markers. AREAS COVERED There is a medical need for molecular markers with a better predictive value to discriminate hrHPV-positive women that are at risk of developing cervical cancer from those that are not. Areas covered are epigenetic and protein markers as well as health economic considerations in view of the fact that most cases of cervical cancer arise in low-to-middle-income countries. EXPERT OPINION While there are biomarker assays based on changes at the nucleic acid (DNA methylation patterns, miRNAs) and at the protein level, they are not widely used in population screening. Combining nucleic acid-based and protein-based tests could improve the overall specificity for discriminating CIN2+ lesions that carry a low risk of progressing to cervical cancer within the screening interval from those that carry an elevated risk. The challenge is to reduce unnecessary referrals without an undesired increase in false-negative diagnoses resulting in cases of cervical cancer that could have been prevented. A further challenge is to develop tests for low-and middle-income countries, which is critical to reduce the worldwide burden of cervical cancer.

Abstract
Emerging and validated biomarkers promise to revolutionize clinical practice, shifting the emphasis away from the management of chronic disease towards prevention, early diagnosis and early intervention. The challenge of detecting these low abundance protein and nucleic acid biomarkers within the clinical context demands the development of highly sensitive, even single molecule, assays that are also capable of selectively measuring a small number of defined analytes in complex samples such as whole blood, interstitial fluid, saliva or urine. Success relies on significant innovations in nanomaterials, bioreceptor engineering, transduction strategies and microfluidics. Primarily using examples from our work, this article discusses some recent advance in the selective and sensitive detection of disease biomarkers, highlights key innovations in sensor materials and identifies issues and challenges that need to be carefully considered especially for researchers entering the field.

Abstract
The detection and profiling of pathogenic bacteria is critical for human health, environmental, and food safety monitoring. Herein, we propose a highly sensitive colorimetric strategy for naked eye screening of 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) from pathogenic agents relevant to infections, human health, and food safety monitoring with a magnetic focus lateral flow sensor (mLFS) platform. The method developed was demonstrated in model 16S rRNA sequences of the pathogen Escherichia coli O157:H7 to detect as low as 1 fM of targets, exhibiting a sensitivity improved by ∼5 × 105 times compared to the conventional GNP-based colorimetric lateral flow assay used for oligonucleotide testing. Based on the grayscale values, semi-quantitation of up to 1 pM of target sequences was possible in ∼45 min. The methodology could detect the target 16S rRNA from as low as 32 pg/mL of total RNA extracted from pathogens. Specificity was demonstrated with total RNA extracted from E. coli K-12 MG1655, Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa). No signal was observed from as high as 320 pg/mL of total RNA from the nontarget bacteria. The recognition of target 16S rRNA from 32 pg/mL of total RNA in complex matrices was also demonstrated. The proposed mLFS method was then extended to monitoring B. subtilis and P. aeruginosa. Our approach highlights the possibility of extending this concept to screen specific nucleic acid sequences for the monitoring of infectious pathogens or microbiome implicated in a range of diseases including cancer.

Abstract
A gold nanorod (AuNR)-based lateral flow nucleic acid biosensor (LFNAB) is reported for visual detection of DNA with a short test time and high sensitivity. AuNRs with an approximate length of 60 nm were utilized as a colored tag to label the detection DNA probe (Det-DNA). The capture DNA probe (Cap-DNA) was immobilized on the test region of LFNAB. Sandwich-type complex was formed among the AuNR-Det-DNA, target DNA (Tar-DNA), and Cap-DNA on the LFNAB by Watson-Crick base pairing. In the presence of Tar-DNA, AuNRs were thus seized on the test region of LFNAB, and the accumulation of AuNRs subsequently produced a characteristic colored band. The optimized LFNAB was able to detect 10 pM Tar-DNA without instrumentation. Quantitative analysis could be established by measuring the intensity of test band using a portable strip reader, and the detection limit of 2 pM target DNA was achieved on the LFNAB without signal amplification. The detection limit of the AuNR-based LFNAB is 250-fold lower than that of gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-based LFNABs. This work unveiled a sensitive, rapid, and economical strategy for the detection of nucleic acids, and simultaneously opening new promising routes for disease diagnosis and clinical applications. Gold nanorods are used as colored tags for lateral flow nucleic acid biosensor.

Abstract
As one of the most common and noticeable superbugs, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has long been a major threat to public health. To meet the demand for effective diagnosis of MRSA-induced infection, it is urgent to establish rapid assay method for this type of pathogen. In this study, an aqueous soluble cellular wall-binding domain (CWBD) protein from bacteriophage P108 was obtained with a recombinant expression technique. It can act as a wide-spectrum binding agent for all MRSA strains and exclude the interference from methicillin-susceptible strains of Staphylococcus aureus and other species of bacteria. To establish a lateral flow assay (LFA) method for MRSA, CWBD-coupled time-resolved fluorescent microspheres (FMs) were used as signal probes for tracing MRSA, and a nitrocellulose membrane immobilized with porcine IgG was used to capture MRSA. With the LFA based on sandwich format, MRSA can be assayed within 10 min with a broad linear range of 6.6 × 102-6.6 × 107 CFU/mL. Its application potential has been demonstrated by assaying different types of bacteria-contaminated real samples. The results suggest that the LFA strip using recombinant CWBD as the recognition agent provides a rapid, portable, cost-effective approach for point-of-care testing of MRSA.

Abstract
The immunochromatographic strip test (ICST) is a powerful on-site detection technology due to its unique advantages of simplicity, rapidity, and readability by the naked eye. Here we illustrate the potential of α-Fe2O3 polyhedrons as a novel visual label, which exhibit advantages of high stability and economy, for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) as a model foodborne pathogen. A low-cost and simple one-step solvothermal approach was developed for the synthesis of α-Fe2O3 polyhedrons; the average diameter of the α-Fe2O3 polyhedrons is about 200 nm. The crystal structure and morphology of α-Fe2O3 polyhedrons were characterized by x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. α-Fe2O3 polyhedrons were immunized with anti-L. monocytogenes antibody to prepare an antibody-colloidal α-Fe2O3 polyhedron ICST. Visual detection can be obtained directly by the naked eye within 10 min. The detection limit of L. monocytogenes by α-Fe2O3 polyhedron ICST assay was 3.8 × 106 and 5.6 × 106 CFU/ml of pure culture and artificially spiked orange juice drink sample, respectively. Results indicated that the antibody-colloidal α-Fe2O3 polyhedron ICST is a rapid, simple, and low-cost assay. This approach showed great potential in the application of foodborne pathogen detection concerning food safety.

Abstract
This review reports the recent advances in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based lateral flow assay (LFA) platforms for the diagnosis of infectious diseases. As observed through the recent infection outbreaks of COVID-19 worldwide, a timely diagnosis of the disease is critical for preventing the spread of a disease and to ensure epidemic preparedness. In this regard, an innovative point-of-care diagnostic method is essential. Recently, SERS-based assay platforms have received increasing attention in medical communities owing to their high sensitivity and multiplex detection capability. In contrast, LFAs provide a user-friendly and easily accessible sensing platform. Thus, the combination of LFAs with a SERS detection system provides a new diagnostic modality for accurate and rapid diagnoses of infectious diseases. In this context, we briefly discuss the recent application of LFA platforms for the POC diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2. Thereafter, we focus on the recent advances in SERS-based LFA platforms for the early diagnosis of infectious diseases and their applicability for the rapid diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2. Finally, the key issues that need to be addressed to accelerate the clinical translation of SERS-based LFA platforms from the research laboratory to the bedside are discussed.

Abstract
Conventional lateral flow assay (LFA) is typically performed by observing the color changes in the test lines by naked eyes, which achieves considerable commercial success and has a significant impact on the fields of food safety, environment monitoring, disease diagnosis, and other applications. However, this qualitative detection method is not very suitable for low levels of disease biomarkers' detection. Although many nanomaterials are used as new labels for LFA, additional readers limit their application to some extent. Fortunately, a lot of work has been done for improving the sensitivity of LFA. In this review, currently reported LFA sensitivity enhancement methods with an objective evaluation are summarized, such as sample pretreatment, the change of flow rate, and label evolution, and future development direction and challenges of LFAs are discussed.

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.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is the fourth largest cancer, affecting women across the globe. Rapid screening is of vital importance for diagnosis and treatment of the disease, especially in developing countries with high risk populations. In this paper, we report a simple, novel and rapid approach for qualitative screening of cervical cancer. A label-free colorimetric technique ("C-ColAur") involving the in situ formation of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) in the presence of clinical samples is demonstrated. The as-formed Au NPs, owing to the sample composition produced a characteristic color that can be used for the qualitative detection of malignancy. We demonstrated the proof of principle using clinical samples (cervical fluid) collected from both cancer affected and healthy individuals. The results of the detection technique, "C-ColAur" when compared with those of the existing conventional diagnostic procedures (i.e. Pap smear or biopsy), showed 96.42% sensitivity. With the detection time less than a minute and with no/minimal sample processing requirements, the proposed technique shows great potential for point-of-care as well as clinical screening of cervical cancer.

Abstract
Detecting cancer at an early stage of disease progression promises better treatment outcomes and longer lifespans for cancer survivors. Research has been directed towards the development of accessible and highly sensitive cancer diagnostic tools, many of which rely on protein biomarkers and biomarker panels which are overexpressed in body fluids and associated with different types of cancer. Protein biomarker detection for point-of-care (POC) use requires the development of sensitive, noninvasive liquid biopsy cancer diagnostics that overcome the limitations and low sensitivities associated with current dependence upon imaging and invasive biopsies. Among many endeavors to produce user-friendly, semi-automated, and sensitive protein biomarker sensors, 3D printing is rapidly becoming an important contemporary tool for achieving these goals. Supported by the widely available selection of affordable desktop 3D printers and diverse printing options, 3D printing is becoming a standard tool for developing low-cost immunosensors that can also be used to make final commercial products. In the last few years, 3D printing platforms have been used to produce complex sensor devices with high resolution, tailored towards researchers’ and clinicians’ needs and limited only by their imagination. Unlike traditional subtractive manufacturing, 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, has drastically reduced the time of sensor and sensor array development while offering excellent sensitivity at a fraction of the cost of conventional technologies such as photolithography. In this review, we offer a comprehensive description of 3D printing techniques commonly used to develop immunosensors, arrays, and microfluidic arrays. In addition, recent applications utilizing 3D printing in immunosensors integrated with different signal transduction strategies are described. These applications include electrochemical, chemiluminescent (CL), and electrochemiluminescent (ECL) 3D-printed immunosensors. Finally, we discuss current challenges and limitations associated with available 3D printing technology and future directions of this field.

Abstract
The development of magnetic field sensors for biomedical applications primarily focuses on equivalent magnetic noise reduction or overall design improvement in order to make them smaller and cheaper while keeping the required values of a limit of detection. One of the cutting-edge topics today is the use of magnetic field sensors for applications such as magnetocardiography, magnetotomography, magnetomyography, magnetoneurography, or their application in point-of-care devices. This introductory review focuses on modern magnetic field sensors suitable for biomedicine applications from a physical point of view and provides an overview of recent studies in this field. Types of magnetic field sensors include direct current superconducting quantum interference devices, search coil, fluxgate, magnetoelectric, giant magneto-impedance, anisotropic/giant/tunneling magnetoresistance, optically pumped, cavity optomechanical, Hall effect, magnetoelastic, spin wave interferometry, and those based on the behavior of nitrogen-vacancy centers in the atomic lattice of diamond.

Abstract
Paper-based lateral-flow assays (LFAs) have achieved considerable commercial success and continue to have a significant impact on medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring. Conventional LFAs are typically performed by examining the color changes in the test bands by naked eye. However, for critical biochemical markers that are present in extremely small amounts in the clinical specimens, this readout method is not quantitative, and does not provide sufficient sensitivity or suitable detection limit for a reliable assay. Diverse technologies for high-sensitivity LFA detection have been developed and commercialization efforts are underway. In this review, we aim to provide a critical and objective overview of the recent progress in high-sensitivity LFA detection technologies, which involve the exploitation of the physical and chemical responses of transducing particles. The features and biomedical applications of the technologies, along with future prospects and challenges, are also discussed.

Abstract
The accurate analysis of tumor related biomarkers is extremely critical in the diagnosis of the early stage cervical cancer. Herein, we designed a novel and inexpensive surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based lateral flow assay (SERS-based LFA) strip with a single test line, which was applied for the rapid and sensitive quantitative simultaneous analysis of SCCA and CA125 in serum samples from patients with cervical cancer. In the presence of target antigens, the monoclonal antibody-coupled and Raman reporter-labeled nano-Ag polydopamine nanospheres (PDA@Ag-NPs) aggregated on the test line modified by the polyclonal antibody to form a double-antibody sandwich structure. The finite difference time domain simulation demonstrated that large number of “hot spots” was generated among the nanogaps of aggregated PDA@AgNPs, which resulted in a huge enhancement of the signal of the Raman reporters. Accordingly, the limit of detection was determined to be 7.156 pg mL−1 for SCCA and 7.182 pg mL−1 for CA125 in phosphate buffer and 8.093 pg mL−1 for SCCA and 7.370 pg mL−1 for CA125 in human serum, revealing high sensitivity of this SERS-based LFA strip. Significantly, the detection of SCCA and CA125 using the SERS-based LFA was observed to have high specificity and reproducibility, and the whole detection was completed within 20 min. Furthermore, the SERS-based LFA and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were also employed in serum samples obtained from patients with cervical cancer, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and healthy subjects, and perfect agreement existed between both the methods. Thus, clinically, the developed SERS-based LFA strip has strong potential for the simultaneous detection of multiple cancer biomarkers in serum. Based on SERS-based lateral flow immunoassay, nano-Ag polydopamine nanospheres was used for detecting squamous cell carcinoma antigen and cancer antigen 125 simultaneously in cervical cancer serum.![]()

Abstract
: Nanomaterial biosensors have revolutionized the entire scientific, technology, biomedical, materials science, and engineering fields. Among all nanomaterials, magnetic nanoparticles, microparticles, and beads are unique in offering facile conjugation of biorecognition probes for selective capturing of any desired analytes from complex real sample matrices (e.g., biofluids such as whole blood, serum, urine and saliva, tissues, food, and environmental samples). In addition, rapid separation of the particle-captured analytes by the simple use of a magnet for subsequent detection on a sensor unit makes the magnetic particle sensor approach very attractive. The easy magnetic isolation feature of target analytes is not possible with other inorganic particles, both metallic (e.g., gold) and non-metallic (e.g., silica), which require difficult centrifugation and separation steps. Magnetic particle biosensors have thus enabled ultra-low detection with ultra-high sensitivity that has traditionally been achieved only by radioactive assays and other tedious optical sources. Moreover, when traditional approaches failed to selectively detect low-concentration analytes in complex matrices (e.g., colorimetric, electrochemistry, and optical methods), magnetic particle-incorporated sensing strategies enabled sample concentration into a defined microvolume of large surface area particles for a straightforward detection. The objective of this article is to highlight the ever-growing applications of magnetic materials for the detection of analytes present in various real sample matrices. The central idea of this paper was to show the versatility and advantages of using magnetic particles for a variety of sample matrices and analyte types and the adaptability of different transducers with the magnetic particle approaches.

Abstract
The method capable of simultaneously detecting multiple target bacterial pathogens is necessary and of great interest. In this research, we demonstrated our initial effort to simultaneously detect seven common foodborne bacteria by developing a straightforward upconversion fluorescence sensing approach. The fluorescent nanosensor was constructed from a designed guanidine-functionalized upconversion fluorescent nanoparticles (UCNPs@GDN), tannic acid, and hydrogen peroxide (HP) and could quantify pathogenic bacteria in a nonspecific manner because the luminescence of the upconversion fluorescent nanoparticle was effectively strengthened in the presence of bacteria. When the developed nanosensor was applied to quantify multiple bacteria including Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Cronobacter sakazakii, Shigella flexneri, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes, a linear range of 103 to 108 cfu mL-1 and a detection limit of 1.30 × 102 cfu mL-1 have been obtained for the seven model mixture bacteria. In addition, the similar linear range and detection limit were also obtained for the detection of single bacteria. The present approach also exhibited acceptable recovery values ranging from 70.0 to 118.2% for bacteria in real samples (water, milk, and beef). All these results suggested that the guanidine-functionalized upconversion fluorescent nanosensor could be considered as a promising candidate for the rapid detection and surveillance of microbial pollutants in food and water.
