Abstract
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection has been acknowledged as a promising liquid biopsy approach for cancer diagnosis, with various ctDNA assays used for early detection and treatment monitoring. Dispersible magnetic nanoparticle-based electrochemical detection methods have been proposed as promising candidates for ctDNA detection based on the detection performance and features of the platform material. This study proposes a nanoparticle surface-localized genetic amplification approach by integrating Fe3O4-Au core-shell nanoparticles into polymerase chain reactions (PCR). These highly dispersible and magnetically responsive superparamagnetic nanoparticles act as nano-electrodes that amplify and accumulate target ctDNA in situ on the nanoparticle surface upon PCR amplification. These nanoparticles are subsequently captured and subjected to repetitive electrochemical measurements to induce reconfiguration-mediated signal amplification for ultrasensitive (∼3 aM) and rapid (∼7 min) metastatic breast cancer ctDNA detection in vitro. The detection platform can also detect metastatic biomarkers from in vivo samples, highlighting the potential for clinical applications and further expansion to rapid and ultrasensitive multiplex detection of various cancers.

Abstract
Here, a multiplex surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-immunochromatography (ICA) platform is presented using a graphene oxide (GO)-based film-like magnetic tag (GFe-DAu-D/M) that effectively captures and detects multiple bacteria in complex specimens. The 2D GFe-DAu-D/M tag with universal bacterial capture ability is fabricated through the layer-by-layer assembly of one layer of small Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) and two layers of 30 nm AuNPs with a 0.5 nm built-in nanogap on monolayer GO nanosheets followed by co-modification with 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) and 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid).The GFe-DAu-D/M enabled the rapid enrichment of multiple bacteria by MPBA and quantitative analysis of target bacteria on test lines by specific antibodies, thus achieving multiple signal amplification of magnetic enrichment effect and multilayer dense hotspots and eliminating matrix interference in real-world applications. The developed technology can directly and simultaneously diagnose three major pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Salmonella typhimurium) with detection limits down to the level of 10 cells mL-1. The good performance of the proposed method in the detection of real urinary tract infection specimens is also demonstrated, suggesting the great potential of the GFe-DAu-D/M-ICA platform for the highly sensitive monitoring of bacterial infections or contamination.

Abstract
Dipicolinic acid (DPA) is a chelate capable of binding to a variety of lanthanide ions to make them luminescent in the visible range. Based on this property and also assisted by magnetic separation, we report a strategy for the sensitive detection of DPA. Poly(acrylic acid)-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) serve as a magnetic carrier to deliver only a necessary amount of Tb3+ ions to DPA in a sample solution. This enables photoluminescence measurement of the Tb3+-DPA complex with minimal background noise. The obtained detection limit, which is as low as 0.236 nM, is more than two orders of magnitude lower than that of the assay not assisted by magnetic separation. Not only does this method possess a potential for diagnosing anthrax, given that DPA is a major constituent of Bacillus anthracis spores, but it is also useful for detecting aqueous Cu2+ ions through the luminescence quenching effect. High sensitivity with a detection limit of 54 nM [Cu2+] is demonstrated using the Eu3+-DPA complex.

Abstract
Chitosan-stabilized Prussian blue nanoparticles (CS/PBNPs) were fabricated by a simple synthetic method and used to develop a novel aptamer-based colorimetric assay for selective determination of dopamine (DA). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images exhibited a uniform shape of the CS/PBNPs with an average diameter of 37.0 ± 3.2 nm. The CS/PBNPs exhibited strong peroxidase-like activity that catalyzed the reaction between 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Chitosan was used for stabilization of the PBNPs and fixation of the DA aptamer on the surface of the CS/PBNPs. The catalytic mechanism of the CS/PBNPs was confirmed to involve first the decomposition of H2O2 into a hydroxyl radical (˙OH) and then oxidation of TMB by the ˙OH to produce a blue color. An aptamer-based colorimetric assay was made with the CS/PBNPs to detect DA at concentrations of 0.25-100 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.16 μM. For comparison, a gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-based apta-sensor detected DA in concentrations of 1-25 μM with a LOD of 0.55 μM. The recovery results of DA concentrations (0.25, 0.5, and 1 μM) from spiked human serum were 92.6%, 102.1%, and 103.9%, verifying the reliability and reproducibility of the CS/PBNP-based apta-sensor for determination of DA level in clinical applications. Moreover, compared to traditional immunoassay, this aptamer-based nanozyme activation/inhibition system needs no washing step, which is very useful to shorten the assay time and maintain high sensitivity.

Abstract
Most fluorescence-based bioanalytical applications need labeling of analytes. Conventional labeling requires washing to remove the excess fluorescent labels and reduce the noise signals. These pretreatments are labor intensive and need specialized equipment, hindering portable applications in resource-limited areas. Herein, we use the aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) to realize the partitioning-induced isolation of labeled analytes from background signals without extra processing steps. ATPS is formed by mixing two polymers at sufficiently high concentrations. ATPS-based isolation is driven by intrinsic affinity differences between analytes and excess labels. To demonstrate the partitioning-induced isolation and analysis, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is selected as the interfering fluorophore, and a monoclonal antibody (IgG) is used as the analyte. To optimize ATPS compositions, different molecular weights and mass fractions of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and dextran and different phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) concentrations are investigated. Various operational scales of our approach are demonstrated, suggesting its compatibility with various bioanalytical applications. In centimeter-scale ATPS, the optimized distribution ratios of IgG and FITC are 91.682 and 0.998 using PEG 6000 Da and dextran 10,000 Da in 10 mM PBS. In millimeter-scale ATPS, the analyte is enriched to 6.067 fold using 15 wt % PEG 35,000 Da and 5 wt % dextran 500,000 Da in 10 mM PBS. In microscale ATPS, analyte dilutions are isolated into picoliter droplets, and the measured fluorescence intensities linearly correlated with the analyte concentrations (R2 = 0.982).

Abstract
Immunoassays are used for many applications in various markets, from clinical diagnostics to the food industry, generally relying on gold-standard ELISAs that are sensitive, robust, and cheap but also time-consuming and labour intensive. As an alternative, we propose here the magnetically localized and wash-free fluorescence immunoassay (MLFIA): a no-wash assay to directly measure a biomolecule concentration, without mixing nor washing steps. To do so, a fluorescence no-wash measurement is performed to generate a detectable signal. It consists of a differential measurement between the fluorescence of fluorophores bound to magnetic nanoparticles specifically captured by micro-magnets against the residual background fluorescence of unbound fluorophores. Targeted biomolecules (antibodies or antigens) are locally concentrated on micro-magnet lines, with the number of captured biomolecules quantitatively measured without any washing step. The performance of the MLFIA platform is assessed and its use is demonstrated with several biological models as well as clinical blood samples for HIV, HCV and HBV detection, with benchmarking to standard analyzers of healthcare laboratories. Thus, we demonstrated for the first time the versatility of the innovative MLFIA platform. We highlighted promising performances with the successful quantitative detection of various targets (antigens and antibodies), in different biological samples (serum and plasma), for different clinical tests (HCV, HBV, HIV).

Abstract
Precision medicine demands the best application of multiple unambiguous biomarkers to bring uniform decisions in disease prognosis. The remarkable development of heterogeneous immunoassay greatly promotes precision medicine when combined with the biomarker combination strategy. Nevertheless, the cumbersome washing steps in heterogeneous immunoassay have inevitably compromised the accuracy because of the sample losses and nature change of the matrix, challenging the further exploration of a more facile and lower limit-of-detection analysis. The new methodologies with high throughputs and specificity are never out of date to provide simultaneous evaluations and uniform decisions on multiple analytes through a simple process. Herein, we propose a new wash-free immunoassay, named differential assay, for multiplexed biomarker monitoring. The method is based on counting the number difference of unbound nanoparticle tags before and after immunoreactions from a solid support (i.e., magnetic microsphere) by single-particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (sp-ICP-MS), discarding the tedious washing steps. We primarily explore the proof-of-concept proposal within two types (sandwich and competitive assay), demonstrating the good feasibility for further facile clinical practice. To provide efficient multiplexed evaluations, we synthesized PtNPs with four diameters and screened the most suitable size for efficient differential immunoassay. The wash-free strategy was successfully utilized in simultaneous serological biomarker (CA724, CA199, and CEA) evaluation, with results in good accordance with those measured by the clinical routine method. Potentially, the proposed differential bioassay can be regarded as a more facile and valuable tool in malignancy prognosis and cancer recurrence monitoring.

Abstract
Direct and sensitive detection of multiple illegal additives in complex food samples is still a challenge in on-site detection. In this study, an ultrasensitive immunochromatographic assay (ICA) using magnetic Fe3O4@Au nanotags as a capture/detection difunctional tool was developed for the direct detection of β2-adrenoceptor agonists in real samples. The Fe3O4@Au tag is composed of a large magnetic core (~160 nm), a rough Au nanoshell, dense surface-modified Raman molecules, and antibodies, which cannot only effectively enrich targets from complex solutions to reduce the matrix effects of food samples and improve detection sensitivity, but also provide strong colorimetric/surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) dual signals for ICA testing. The dual readout signals of the proposed ICA can meet the detection requirements in different environments. Specifically, the colorimetric signal allows for rapid visual detection of the analyte, and the SERS signal is used for the sensitive and quantitative detection modes. The proposed dual-signal ICA can achieve the simultaneous determination of two illegal additives, namely, clenbuterol hydrochloride and ractopamine. The detection limits for the two targets via colorimetric and SERS signals were down to ng mL−1 and pg mL−1 levels, respectively. Moreover, the proposed assay has demonstrated high accuracy and stability in real food samples.

Abstract
We introduce analyte-dependent exclusion of reporter reagents from restricted-access adsorbents as the basis of an isocratic reporter-exclusion immunoassay for viruses, proteins, and other analytes. Capto™ Core 700 and related resins possess a noninteracting size-selective outer layer surrounding a high-capacity nonspecific mixed-mode capture adsorbent core. In the absence of analyte, antibody-enzyme reporter conjugates can enter the adsorbent and be captured, and their signal is lost. In the presence of large or artificially-expanded analytes, reporter reagents bind to analyte species to form complexes large enough to be excluded from the adsorbent core, allowing their signal to be observed. This assay principle is demonstrated using M13 bacteriophage virus and human chorionic gonadotropin as model analytes. The simple isocratic detection approach described here allows a rapid implementation of immunoassay for detection of a wide range of analytes and uses inexpensive, generally-applicable, and stable column materials instead of costly analyte-specific immunoaffinity adsorbents.

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
Neurodegenerative disorder is an illness involving neural dysfunction/death attributed to complex pathological processes, which eventually lead to the mortality of the host. It is generally recognized through features such as mitochondrial dysfunction, protein aggregation, oxidative stress, metal ions dyshomeostasis, membrane potential change, neuroinflammation and neurotransmitter impairment. The aforementioned neuronal dysregulations result in the formation of a complex neurodegenerative microenvironment (NME), and may interact with each other, hindering the performance of therapeutics for neurodegenerative disease (ND). Recently, smart nanoassemblies prepared from functional nanoparticles, which possess the ability to interfere with different NME factors, have shown great promise to enhance the diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy of NDs. Herein, this review highlights the recent advances of stimuli-responsive nanoassemblies that can effectively combat the NME for the management of ND. The first section outlined the NME properties and their interrelations that are exploitable for nanoscale targeting. The discussion is then extended to the controlled assembly of functional nanoparticles for the construction of stimuli-responsive nanoassemblies. Further, the applications of stimuli-responsive nanoassemblies for the enhanced diagnosis and therapy of ND are introduced. Finally, perspectives on the future development of NME-tailored nanomedicines are given.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles have been extensively studied for a wide variety of applications. However, there remains a challenge in developing hierarchical magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles as existing synthetic techniques require harsh, toxic chemical conditions and high temperatures or give poorly defined product with weak magnetic properties. In addition, drug loading is limited to post-loading methods such as chemical conjugation or surface adsorption that have poor loading efficiency and are prone to premature drug release. We report a facile biomimetic method for making iron oxide nanoparticle-loaded silica nanocapsules based on a bimodal catalytic peptide surfactant stabilized nanoemulsion template. Iron oxide nanoparticles can be preloaded into the oil phase of the nanoemulsion at tunable concentrations, and the excellent surface activity of the designed bimodal peptide in combination with sufficient electrostatic repulsion promotes the stability of the nanoemulsions. Biosilicification induced by the catalytic peptide module leads to the formation of silica shell nanocapsules containing a magnetic oil core. The bioinspired silica nanocapsules encapsulating iron oxide nanoparticles demonstrate the next-generation of magnetic nanostructures for drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Anthrax is a bioterror agent because of its toxicity and the tolerance of its bacterial spores. Thus, researchers have attempted to develop various nanomaterials to detect dipicolinic acid (DPA), a biomarker of bacterial spores. Nanomaterials containing lanthanide ions have received considerable attention, owing to their potential to exhibit high sensitivity and selectivity in the detection of DPA via chelation with molecules. However, the fluorescent signals of the lanthanide complex are quenchable because the nanomaterials simultaneously absorb the excitation and emission light. For the precise detection of DPA, pure signals have to be obtained from the complex by alleviating the quenching effect of the nanomaterials. In this study, we develop a structure with terbium ion (Tb3+)-coordinated magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticle to detect DPA. Tb3+ can be detached from the magnetite during chelation with the DPA, and the complex can emit the unencumbered signals with improved detection limit through the application of a magnetic field. The detection system exhibits a significantly lower detection limit (5.4 nM) than the infectious dosage of anthrax (60 μM) with high selectivity and chemical stability. This study informs the improvement of detection limits via the separation of nanomaterials and lanthanide complex.

Abstract
Mesocrystals, consisting of small subunits, have gained research interests owing to their ability to simultaneously modify material-specific properties and interactions among subunits. However, despite these unique characteristics, most mesocrystals are composed of a single material, and there is a disjunction between academic discovery and practical application. In this study, the synthesis of multi-component mesocrystalline nanoparticles composed of Fe3 O4 , ZnFe2 O4 , and ZnO subunits using a polymerization induced heterogeneous nucleation method is reported. The structure has small ZnFe2 O4 and ZnO nanocrystals covering the Fe3 O4 crystallites. It exhibits not only magnetic and catalytic properties determined by the size of each subunit nanocrystal, but also enhances photocatalytic and colloidal properties that originates because of its crowded arrangement. The magnetically recoverable catalysts exhibit remarkable photodegradation of organic molecules under the irradiation of visible light for 1 h; thus, improving its applicability in purifying a large amount of wastewater during the daytime.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles are the basic components of the most promising magnetoresponsive nanoparticle systems for medical (diagnosis and therapy) and bio-related applications. Multi-core iron oxide nanoparticles with a high magnetic moment and well-defined size, shape, and functional coating are designed to fulfill the specific requirements of various biomedical applications, such as contrast agents, heating mediators, drug targeting, or magnetic bioseparation. This review article summarizes recent results in manufacturing multi-core magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) systems emphasizing the synthesis procedures, starting from ferrofluids (with single-core MNPs) as primary materials in various assembly methods to obtain multi-core magnetic particles. The synthesis and functionalization will be followed by the results of advanced physicochemical, structural, and magnetic characterization of multi-core particles, as well as single- and multi-core particle size distribution, morphology, internal structure, agglomerate formation processes, and constant and variable field magnetic properties. The review provides a comprehensive insight into the controlled synthesis and advanced structural and magnetic characterization of multi-core magnetic composites envisaged for nanomedicine and biotechnology.

Abstract
Rapid and frequent screening of cytokines as immunomodulation agents is necessary for precise interventions in severe pathophysiological conditions. In addition to high-sensitivity detection of such analytes in complex biological fluids such as blood, saliva, and cell culture medium samples, it is also crucial to work out miniaturized bioanalytical platforms with potential for high-density integration enabling screening of multiple analytes. In this work, we show a compact, point-of-care-ready bioanalytical platform for screening of cytokines such as interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) based on one-dimensional ion-sensitive field-effect transistors arrays (nanoISFETs) of silicon fabricated at wafer-scale via nanoimprint lithography. The nanoISFETs biofunctionalized with receptor proteins alpha IL-4 and alpha IL-2 were deployed for screening cytokine secretion in mouse T helper cell differentiation culture media, respectively. Our nanoISFETs showed robust sensor signals for specific molecular binding and can be readily deployed for real-time screening of cytokines. Quantitative analyses of the nanoISFET-based bioanalytical platform was carried out for IL-4 concentrations ranging from 25 fg/mL (1.92 fM) to 2.5 μg/mL (192 nM), showing a limit of detection down to 3-5 fM, which was found to be in agreement with ELISA results in determining IL-4 concentrations directly in complex cell culture media.

Abstract
Nanomaterials are commonly utilized for amplified immunoassay of biomarkers. However, traditional nanomaterial-based immunoassay usually requires a time-consuming and labor-intensive nanoparticle modification and conjugation process, which impedes their practical applications. Here, a new immunoassay method based on biosynthesized nanomaterials is developed with versatile functions for facile and ultrasensitive detection of cancer biomarker. In this method, the utilized biosynthesized quantum dots (BQDs) allow convenient antibody conjugation and electrode modification, and demonstrate excellent electrochemical and electrochemiluminescent responses. The differential pulse voltammetric, faradaic impedance spectroscopy, and electrochemiluminescent measurements with the BQD-modified electrode show detection limits at picomolar levels as well as good specificity toward human prostate-specific antigen detection. The inherent recognization capability as well as the inherent electrochemical and electrochemiluminescence features thus enable BQDs as good candidates for facile immunosensors with high sensitivity. Such a biosynthesized nanomaterial-based approach opens up the possibility of using innovative designs for nanoparticle-based assays, and developing reliable and practical methods for early disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Nanotechnology and nanomaterial based electrochemical biosensors (ECBs) have achieved great development in many fields, such as clinical diagnosis, food analysis, and environmental monitoring. Nowadays, the single-handed pursuit of sensitivity and accuracy cannot meet the demands of detection in many in situ and point-of-care (POC) circumstances. More and more attention has been focused on simplifying the operation procedure and reducing detection time, and thus no-wash assay has become one of the most effective ways for the continuous development of ECBs. However, there are many challenges to realize no-wash detection in the real analysis, such as redox interferences, multiple impurities, non-conducting protein macromolecules, etc. Furthermore, the complex detection circumstance in different application fields makes the realization of no-wash ECBs more complicated and difficult. Thanks to the updated nanotechnology and nanomaterials, in-depth analysis of the obstacles in the detection process and various methods for fabricating no-wash ECBs, most issues have been largely resolved. In this review, we have systematically analyzed the nanomaterial based design strategy of the state-of-the-art no-wash ECBs in the past few years. Following that, we summarized the challenges in the detection process of no-wash ECBs and their applications in different fields. Finally, based on the summary and analysis in this review, we also evaluated and discussed future prospects from the design to the application of ECBs.

Abstract
The utilization of immuno-magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for the selective capture, enrichment, and separation of specific glycoproteins from complicated biological samples is appealing for the discovery of disease biomarkers. Herein, MNPs were designed and anchored with abundant boronic acid (BA) and photoreactive alkyl diazirine (Diaz) functional groups to obtain permanently tethered Fc-fused Siglec-2 and antiserum amyloid A (SAA) mAb with the assistance of reversible boronate affinity and UV light activation in an orientation-controlled manner. The Siglec-2-Fc-functionalized MNPs showed excellent stability in fetal bovine serum (FBS) and excellent efficiency in the extraction of cell membrane glycoproteins. The anti-SAA mAb-functionalized MNPs maintained active Ab orientation and preserved antigen recognition capability in biological samples. Thus, the BA-Diaz-based strategy holds promise for the immobilization of glycoproteins, such as antibodies, with the original protein binding activity maintained, which can provide better enrichment for the sensitive detection of target proteins.

Abstract
Accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides in the brain is regarded as a major contributor to the pathogenesis and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, development of clinically relevant techniques to reduce Aβ levels in AD patients is hindered by low efficiency and/or side effects. Here, an extracorporeal Aβ cleansing system, where multifunctional magnetite/ceria nanoparticle assemblies are used to remove Aβ peptides from flowing blood by specific capture and magnetic separation, is reported. The magnetite nanoparticles in the nanoassembly core enable the magnetic isolation of the captured Aβ peptides by generating a large attraction force under an external magnetic field. The ceria nanoparticles in the nanoassembly shell relieve oxidative stress by scavenging reactive oxygen species that are produced by immune response during the process. Blood Aβ cleansing treatment of 5XFAD transgenic mice not only demonstrates the decreased Aβ levels both in the blood and in the brain but also prevents the spatial working memory deficits, suggesting the potential of the method for AD prevention and therapy.

Abstract
Century-old Langmuir monolayer deposition still represents the most convenient approach to the production of monolayers of colloidal nanoparticles on solid substrates for practical biological and chemical-sensing applications. However, this approach simply yields arbitrarily shaped large monolayers on a flat surface and is strongly limited by substrate topography and interfacial energy. Here, we describe a generalized and facile method of rapidly producing uniform monolayers of various colloidal nanoparticles on arbitrary solid substrates by using an ordinary capillary tube. Our method is based on an interesting finding of inversion phenomenon of a nanoparticle-laden air-water interface by flowing through a capillary tube in a manner that prevents the particles from adhesion to the capillary sidewall, thereby presenting the nanoparticles face-first at the tube's opposite end for direct and one-step deposition onto a substrate. We show that our method not only allows the placement of a nanoparticle monolayer at target locations of solid substrates regardless of their surface geometry and adhesion but also enables the production of monolayers containing nanoparticles with different size, shape, surface charge, and composition. To explore the potential of our approach, we demonstrate the facile integration of gold nanoparticle monolayers into microfluidic devices for the real-time monitoring of molecular Raman signals under dynamic flow conditions. Moreover, we successfully extend the use of our method to developing on-demand Raman sensors that can be built directly on the surface of consumer products for practical chemical sensing and fingerprinting. Specifically, we achieve both the pinpoint deposition of gold nanoparticle monolayers and sensitive molecular detection from the deposited region on clothing fabric for the detection of illegal drug substances, a single grain of rice and an orange for pesticide monitoring, and a $100 bill as a potential anti-counterfeit measure, respectively. We believe that our method will provide unique opportunities to expand the utility of colloidal nanoparticles and to greatly improve the accessibility of nanoparticle-based sensing technologies.

Abstract
Lanthanide (Ln3+)-doped NaREF4 (RE = rare earth) nanocrystals (NCs) are one of the most widely studied upconversion and downshifting luminescent nanoprobes. However, the size and optical performance of the Ln3+-doped NaREF4 NCs produced by the available lab-scale synthesis may vary from batch to batch, which inevitably limits their practical bioapplications. Herein, we report the synthesis of uniform Ln3+-doped NaREF4 NCs via a facile solid-liquid-thermal-decomposition (SLTD) method by directly employing NaHF2 powder as a fluoride and sodium precursor. The proposed SLTD strategy is easy to perform, time-saving and cost-effective, making it ideal for scale-up syntheses. Particularly, over 63 g of β-NaGdF4:Yb,Er@NaYF4 core/shell NCs with narrow size variation (<7%) were synthesized via a one-pot reaction. By virtue of their superior upconversion and downshifting luminescence, we employed the synthesized core/shell nanoprobes for the in vitro detection of prostate-specific antigen with a limit of detection down to 1.8 ng mL-1, and for in vivo near-infrared imaging with a high signal-to-noise ratio of 12. These findings may pave the way for the commercialization of Ln3+-doped nanoprobes in bioassay kits for versatile clinical applications.
