Abstract
Point-of-care monitoring of small molecules in biofluids is crucial for clinical diagnosis and treatment. However, the inherent low degree of recognition of small molecules and the complex composition of biofluids present significant obstacles for current detection technologies. Although nanopore sensing excels in the analysis of small molecules, the direct detection of small molecules in complex biofluids remains a challenge. In this study, we present a method for sensing the small molecule drug gentamicin in whole blood based on the mechanosensitive channel of small conductance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PaMscS) nanopore. PaMscS can directly detect gentamicin and distinguish its main components with only a monomethyl difference. The 'molecular sieve' structure of PaMscS enables the direct measurement of gentamicin in human whole blood within 10 min. Furthermore, a continuous monitoring device constructed based on PaMscS achieved continuous monitoring of gentamicin in live rats for approximately 2.5 h without blood consumption, while the drug components can be analyzed in situ. This approach enables rapid and convenient drug monitoring with single-molecule level resolution, which can significantly lower the threshold for drug concentration monitoring and promote more efficient drug use. Moreover, this work also lays the foundation for the future development of continuous monitoring technology with single-molecule level resolution in the living body.

Abstract
In this new methodology, plasmonic ELISA (pELISA) was used to detect Circovirus porcine2 (PCV2) in serum samples without the need for plate reading equipment. This process occurs by adapting the conventional ELISA test with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to promote a color change on the plate and quickly identify this difference with the naked eye, generating a dark purple-gray hue when the samples are positive and red when the samples are negative. The technique demonstrated high efficiency in detecting samples with a viral load ≥ 5 log10 copies/mL. Plasmonic ELISA offers user-friendly, cost-effective, and reliable characteristics, making it a valuable tool for PCV2 diagnosis and potentially adaptable for other pathogen detection applications.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanostructure biosensors based on metal are a powerful tool in the biosensing field. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) can be classified into localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and propagating surface plasmon polariton (PSPP), based on the transmission mode. Initially, the physical principles of LSPR and PSPP are elaborated. In what follows, the recent development of the biosensors related to SPR principle is summarized. For clarity, they are categorized into three groups according to the sensing principle: (i) inherent resonance-based biosensors, which are sensitive to the refractive index changes of the surroundings; (ii) plasmon nanoruler biosensors in which the distances of the nanostructure can be changed by biomolecules at the nanoscale; and (iii) surface-enhanced Raman scattering biosensors in which the nanostructure serves as an amplifier for Raman scattering signals. Moreover, the advanced application of single-molecule detection is discussed in terms of metal nanoparticle and nanopore structures. The review concludes by providing perspectives on the future development of plasmonic nanostructure biosensors.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic started more than 3 years ago, but the containment of the spread is still a challenge. Screening is imperative for informed decision making by government authorities to contain the spread of the virus locally. The access to screening tests is disproportional, due to the lack of access to reagents, equipment, finances or because of supply chain disruptions. Low and middle-income countries have especially suffered with the lack of these resources. Here, we propose a low cost and easily constructed biosensor device based on localized surface plasmon resonance, or LSPR, for the screening of SARS-CoV-2. The biosensor device, dubbed "sensor" for simplicity, was constructed in two modalities: (1) viral detection in saliva and (2) antibody against COVID in saliva. Saliva collected from 18 patients were tested in triplicates. Both sensors successfully classified all COVID positive patients (among hospitalized and non-hospitalized). From the COVID negative patients 7/8 patients were correctly classified. For both sensors, sensitivity was determined as 100% (95% CI 79.5-100) and specificity as 87.5% (95% CI 80.5-100). The reagents and equipment used for the construction and deployment of this sensor are ubiquitous and low-cost. This sensor technology can then add to the potential solution for challenges related to screening tests in underserved communities.

Abstract
One of the emerging technologies in molecular diagnostics of the last two decades is the use of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for biosensors. AuNPs can be functionalized with various biomolecules, such as nucleic acids or antibodies, to recognize and bind to specific targets. AuNPs present unique optical properties, such as their distinctive plasmonic band, which confers a bright-red color to AuNP solutions, and their extremely high extinction coefficient, which makes AuNPs detectable by the naked eye even at low concentrations. Ingenious molecular mechanisms triggered by the presence of a target analyte can change the colloidal status of AuNPs from dispersed to aggregated, with a subsequent visible change in color of the solution due to the loss of the characteristic plasmonic band. This review describes how the optical properties of AuNPs have been exploited for the design of plasmonic biosensors that only require the simple mixing of reagents combined with a visual readout and focuses on the molecular mechanisms involved. This review illustrates selected examples of AuNP-based plasmonic biosensors and promising approaches for the point-of-care testing of various analytes, spanning from the viral RNA of SARS-CoV-2 to the molecules that give distinctive flavor and color to aged whisky.

Abstract
The early detection of biomarker proteins in clinical samples is of great significance for the diagnosis of diseases. However, it is still a challenge to detect low-concentration protein. Herein, a label-free aptamer-based amplification assay, termed the ATC-TA system, that allows fluorescence detection of very low numbers of protein without time-consuming washing steps and pre-treatment was developed. The target induces a conformational change in the allosteric aptasensor, triggers the target cycling and transcription amplification, and ultimately converts the input of the target protein into the output of the light-up aptamer (R-Pepper). It exhibits ultrahigh sensitivity with a detection limit of 5.62 fM at 37 ℃ and the accuracy is comparable to conventional ELISA. ATC-TA has potential application for the detection of endogenous PDGF-BB in serum samples to distinguish tumor mice from healthy mice at an early stage. It also successfully detects exogenous SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins in human serum. Therefore, this high-sensitive, universality, easy-to-operate and cost-effective biosensing platform holds great clinical application potential in early clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Biosensors and bioassays, both of which employ proteins and nucleic acids to detect specific molecular targets, have seen significant applications in both biomedical research and clinical practice. This success is largely due to the extraordinary versatility, affinity, and specificity of biomolecular recognition. Nevertheless, these receptors suffer from an inherent limitation: single, saturable binding sites exhibit a hyperbolic relationship (the "Langmuir isotherm") between target concentration and receptor occupancy, which in turn limits the sensitivity of these technologies to small variations in target concentration. To overcome this and generate more responsive biosensors and bioassays, here we have used the sequestration mechanism to improve the steepness of the input/output curves of several bioanalytical methods. As our test bed for this we employed sensors and assays against neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), a kidney biomarker for which enhanced sensitivity will improve the monitoring of kidney injury. Specifically, by introducing sequestration we have improved the responsiveness of an electrochemical aptamer based (EAB) biosensor, and two bioassays, a paper-based "dipstick" assay and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Doing so we have narrowed the dynamic range of these sensors and assays several-fold, thus enhancing their ability to measure small changes in target concentration. Given that introducing sequestration requires only the addition of the appropriate concentration of a high-affinity "depletant," the mechanism appears simple and easily adaptable to tuning the binding properties of the receptors employed in a wide range of biosensors and bioassays.

BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12080619.

Abstract
Conventional immunocolorimetric sensing of biomolecules continues to be challenged with low sensitivity although its wide application as a diagnostic tool in medicine and biotechnology. Herein, we present a multifunctional immunocolorimetric sensing system for sensitive and high-throughput detection of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) with carbon-gold nanocomposite (CGNs) amplification. Using a “green” strategy, monodisperse carbon nanospheres (CNs) were successfully synthesized by glucose carbonization. A simple and efficient hydrothermal method was developed to assemble abundant gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) onto the surfaces of CNs. The resulting CGNs were characterized and utilized for biomarker detection with superior properties of easy manufacturing, good biocompatibility, satisfactory chemical stability, and high loading capacity for biomolecules. As a proof of concept, the as-prepared CGNs were conjugated with horseradish peroxidase-labeled antibody against BNP (CGNs@AntiBNP-HRP) functioning as the carrier, signal amplifier, and detector for the sensitive detection of BNP. Under optimal conditions, the established CGNs@AntiBNP-HRP immunoprobe remarkably enhanced the detection performance of BNP, achieving signal amplification of more than 9 times compared to the conventional method. Based on our self-developed bionic electronic eye (e-Eye) and CGNs@AntiBNP-HRP immunoprobe, the multifunctional sensing system displayed a wide dynamic linear range of 3.9–500 ng/mL and a LOD of 0.640 ng/mL for BNP detection with high specificity, good accuracy and reproducibility. This portable sensing system with enhanced performance demonstrates great potential for BNP detection in point of care applications, and offers a universal and reliable platform for in vitro biomarker detection.

Singh MM, Satija J. Enzyme-assisted metal nanoparticles etching based plasmonic ELISA: Progress and insights. Anal Biochem 2022; 654:114820. [PMID: 35850200 DOI: 10.1016/j.ab.2022.114820] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2022] [Revised: 07/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The unique size and shape tunable localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties of the noble metal nanoparticle have been extensively exploited to realize a variety of enzyme-based optical biosensors. Although approaches like metal film deposition, nanoparticle aggregation, and synthesis & growth of metal nanoparticles are quite useful, metal nanoparticle etching-based biosensors offer greater sensitivity, selectivity, and stability against various environmental factors which makes this strategy easy to use for field applications. This review discusses the current state-of-art of plasmonic nanoparticle etching-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) realized for visual detection of various analytes. The naked eye detection, i.e. without any optical readout device, is the additional advantage of this sensing approach that reduces the analysis cost significantly making it feasible under resource-constrained settings. This review paper provides deeper insights into biocatalytic etching mechanisms of various plasmonic nanoparticles resulting in vivid color change as a function of analyte concentration. Although nanoparticle etching-based ELISA has huge potential, steps need to be taken to realize a point-of-care (POC) nanodiagnostic before its translation to a commercial technique or product that can be achieved in near future by integrating it with microfluidics technology and other technological avenues.

Abstract
The continuing accumulation of mutations in the RNA genome of the SARS-CoV-2 virus generates an endless succession of highly contagious variants that cause concern around the world due to their antibody resistance and the failure of current diagnostic techniques to detect them in a timely manner. Raman spectroscopy represents a promising alternative to variants detection and recognition techniques, thanks to its ability to provide a characteristic spectral fingerprint of the biological samples examined under all circumstances. In this work we exploit the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) properties of a silver dendrite layer to explore, for the first time to our knowledge, the distinctive features of the Omicron variant genome. We obtain a complex spectral signal of the Omicron variant genome where the fingerprints of nucleobases in nucleosides are clearly unveiled and assigned in detail. Furthermore, the fractal SERS layer offers the presence of confined spatial regions in which the analyte remains trapped under hydration conditions. This opens up the prospects for a prompt spectral identification of the genome in its physiological habitat and for a study on its activity and variability.

Abstract
As declared by WHO, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a high priority issue with a pressing need to develop impactful technologies to curb it. The rampant and inappropriate use of antibiotics due to the lack of adequate and timely diagnosis is a leading cause behind AMR evolution. Unfortunately, populations with poor economic status and those residing in densely populated areas are the most affected ones, frequently leading to emergence of AMR pathogens. Classical approaches for AMR diagnostics like phenotypic methods, biochemical assays, and molecular techniques are cumbersome and resource-intensive and involve a long turnaround time to yield confirmatory results. In contrast, recent emergence of nanotechnology-assisted approaches helps to overcome challenges in classical approaches and offer simpler, more sensitive, faster, and more affordable solutions for AMR diagnostics. Nanomaterial platforms (metallic, quantum-dot, carbon-based, upconversion, etc.), nanoparticle-based rapid point-of-care platforms, nano-biosensors (optical, mechanical, electrochemical), microfluidic-assisted devices, and importantly, nanotheranostic devices for diagnostics with treatment of AMR infections are examples of rapidly growing nanotechnology approaches used for AMR management. This review comprehensively summarizes the past 10 years of research progress on nanotechnology approaches for AMR diagnostics and for estimating antimicrobial susceptibility against commonly used antibiotics. This review also highlights several bottlenecks in nanotechnology approaches that need to be addressed prior to considering their translation to clinics.

Abstract
Paper-based biosensors featuring immunoconjugated gold nanoparticles have gained extraordinary momentum in recent times as the platform of choice in key cases of field applications, including the so-called rapid antigen tests for SARS-CoV-2. Here, we propose a revision of this format, one that may leverage on the most recent advances in materials science and data processing. In particular, we target an amplifiable DNA rather than a protein analyte, and we replace gold nanospheres with anisotropic nanorods, which are intrinsically brighter by a factor of ~ 10, and multiplexable. By comparison with a gold-standard method for dot-blot readout with digoxigenin, we show that gold nanorods entail much faster and easier processing, at the cost of a higher limit of detection (from below 1 to 10 ppm in the case of plasmid DNA containing a target transgene, in our current setup). In addition, we test a complete workflow to acquire and process photographs of dot-blot membranes with custom-made hardware and regression tools, as a strategy to gain more analytical sensitivity and potential for quantification. A leave-one-out approach for training and validation with as few as 36 sample instances already improves the limit of detection reached by the naked eye by a factor around 2. Taken together, we conjecture that the synergistic combination of new materials and innovative tools for data processing may bring the analytical sensitivity of paper-based biosensors to approach the level of lab-grade molecular tests.

Abstract
Noble metal nanoparticles (NMNPs) have become firmly established as effective agents to detect various biomolecules with extremely high sensitivity. This ability stems from the collective oscillation of free electrons and extremely large electric field enhancement under exposure to light, leading to various light-matter interactions such as localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and surface-enhanced Raman scattering. A remarkable feature of NMNPs is their customizability by mechanisms such as particle etching, growth, and aggregation/dispersion, yielding distinct color changes and excellent opportunities for colorimetric biosensing in user-friendly assays and devices. They are readily functionalized with a large variety of capping agents and biomolecules, with resultant bioconjugates often possessing excellent biocompatibility, which can be used to quantitatively detect analytes from physiological fluids. Furthermore, they can possess excellent catalytic properties that can achieve significant signal amplification through mechanisms such as the catalytic transformation of colorless substrates to colored reporters. The various excellent attributes of NMNP biosensors have put them in the spotlight for developing high-performance in vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices that are particularly well-suited to mitigate the societal threat that infectious diseases pose. This threat continues to dominate the global health care landscape, claiming millions of lives annually. NMNP IVDs possess the potential to sensitively detect infections even at very early stages with affordable and field-deployable devices, which will be key to strengthening infectious disease management. This has been the major focal point of current research, with a view to new avenues for early multiplexed detection of infectious diseases with portable devices such as smartphones, especially in resource-limited settings.In this Account, we provide an overview of our original inspiration and efforts in NMNP-based assay development, together with some more sophisticated IVD assays by ourselves and many others. Our work in the area has led to our recent efforts in developing IVDs for high-profile infectious diseases, including Ebola and HIV. We emphasize that integration with digital platforms represents an opportunity to establish and efficiently manage widespread testing, tracking, epidemiological intelligence, and data sharing backed by community participation. We highlight how digital technologies can address the limitations of conventional diagnostic technologies at the point of care (POC) and how they may be used to abate and contain the spread of infectious diseases. Finally, we focus on more recent integrations of noble metal nanoparticles with Raman spectroscopy for accurate, noninvasive POC diagnostics with improved sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Detecting the ultra-low abundance of analytes in real-life samples, such as biological fluids, water, soil, and food, requires the design and development of high-performance biosensing modalities. The breakthrough efforts from the scientific community have led to the realization of sensing technologies that measure the analyte's ultra-trace level, with relevant sensitivity, selectivity, response time, and sampling efficiency, referred to as Attomolar Analyte Sensing Techniques (AttoSens) in this review. In an AttoSens platform, 1 aM detection corresponds to the quantification of 60 target analyte molecules in 100 μL of sample volume. Herein, we review the approaches listed for various sensor probe design, and their sensing strategies that paved the way for the detection of attomolar (aM: 10-18 M) concentration of analytes. A summary of the technological advances made by the diverse AttoSens trends from the past decade is presented.

Abstract
While the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) accounts for the current global pandemic, the emergence of other unknown pathogens, named "Disease X," remains a serious concern in the future. Emerging or re-emerging pathogens continue to pose significant challenges to global public health. In response, the scientific community has been urged to create advanced platform technologies to meet the ever-increasing needs presented by these devastating diseases with pandemic potential. This review aims to bring new insights to allow for the application of advanced nanomaterials in future diagnostics, vaccines, and antiviral therapies, thereby addressing the challenges associated with the current preparedness strategies in clinical settings against viruses. The application of nanomaterials has advanced medicine and provided cutting-edge solutions for unmet needs. Herein, an overview of the currently available nanotechnologies is presented, highlighting the significant features that enable them to control infectious diseases, and identifying the challenges that remain to be addressed for the commercial production of nano-based products is presented. Finally, to conclude, the development of a nanomaterial-based system using a "One Health" approach is suggested. This strategy would require a transdisciplinary collaboration and communication between all stakeholders throughout the entire process spanning across research and development, as well as the preclinical, clinical, and manufacturing phases.

Abstract
Monitoring of the human microbiome is an emerging area of diagnostics for personalized medicine. Here, the potential of different nanomaterials and nanobiosensing technologies is reviewed for the development of novel diagnostic devices for the detection and measurement of microbiome-related biomarkers. Moreover, the current and future landscape of microbiome-based diagnostics is defined by exploring the advantages and disadvantages of current nanotechnology-based approaches, especially in the context of developing point-of-care (PoC) devices that would meet the international guidelines known as REASSURED (Real-time connectivity; Ease of specimen collection; Affordability; Sensitivity; Specificity; User-friendliness; Rapid & robust operation; Equipment-free; and Deliverability). Finally, the strategies of the latest international scientific consortia working in this field are analyzed, the current microbiome diagnostics market are reported and the principal ethical, legal, and societal issues related to microbiome R&D and innovation are discussed.

Abstract
Enzymatic colorimetric analysis of metabolites provides signatures of energy conversion and biosynthesis associated with disease onsets and progressions. Miniaturized photodetectors based on emerging two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) promise to advance point-of-care diagnosis employing highly sensitive enzymatic colorimetric detection. Reducing diagnosis costs requires a batched multisample assay. The construction of few-layer TMDC photodetector arrays with consistent performance is imperative to realize optical signal detection for a miniature batched multisample enzymatic colorimetric assay. However, few studies have promoted an optical reader with TMDC photodetector arrays for on-chip operation. Here, we constructed 4 × 4 pixel arrays of miniaturized molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) photodetectors and integrated them with microfluidic enzyme reaction chambers to create an optoelectronic biosensor chip device. The fabricated device allowed us to achieve arrayed on-chip enzymatic colorimetric detection of d-lactate, a blood biomarker signifying the bacterial translocation from the intestine, with a limit of detection that is 1000-fold smaller than the clinical baseline, a 10 min assay time, high selectivity, and reasonably small variability across the entire arrays. The enzyme (Ez)/MoS2 optoelectronic biosensor unit consistently detected d-lactate in clinically important biofluids, such as saliva, urine, plasma, and serum of swine and humans with a wide detection range (10-3-103 μg/mL). Furthermore, the biosensor enabled us to show that high serum d-lactate levels are associated with the symptoms of systemic infection and inflammation. The lensless, optical waveguide-free device architecture should readily facilitate development of a monolithically integrated hand-held module for timely, cost-effective diagnosis of metabolic disorders in near-patient settings.

Abstract
Optical whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microcavities offer great promise in ultrasensitive biosensors because of their unique ability to enable resonant recirculation of light to achieve strong light-matter interactions in microscale volumes. However, it remains a challenge to develop cost-effective, high-performance WGM microcavity-based biosensing devices for practical disease diagnosis applications. In this paper, we present an optofluidic chip that is integrated with directly-printed, high-quality-factor (Q) polymer WGM microlaser sensors for ultrasensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Optical 3D μ-printing technology based on maskless ultraviolet lithography is developed to rapidly fabricate high-Q suspended-disk WGM microcavities. After deposition with a thin layer of optical gain material, low-threshold WGM microlasers are fabricated and then integrated together with optical fibres upon a microfluidic chip to achieve an optofluidic device. With flexible microfluidic technology, on-chip, integrated, WGM microlasers are further modified in situ with biomolecules on surface for highly selective biomarker detection. It is demonstrated that such an optofluidic biochip can measure horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-streptavidin, which is a widely used catalytic molecule in ELISA, via chromogenic reaction at the concentration level of 0.3 ng mL-1. Moreover, it enables on-chip optofluidic ELISA of the disease biomarker vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) at the extremely low concentration level of 17.8 fg mL-1, which is over 2 orders of magnitude better than the ability of current commercial ELISA kits.

Abstract
Biotinylated peptide-Cu2+ nanoparticles (Cu-P NPs) were synthesized via "one-pot" self-assembly. The peptide P conststs of a hydrophobic dipeptide (FF), a tripeptide (KGH), and a biotin moiety attached to the terminal amino group of the Lys residue. The Cu-P NPs contain abundant catalytically active Cu2+ ions which are liberated by acid-induced dissolution. The released Cu2+ ions catalyze the oxidization of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by H2O2 because of their intrinsic peroxidase activity, and this results in the formation of a blue-green coloration. Based on the streptavidin-biotin interaction, the Cu-P NPs were employed to establish an enzyme-free colorimetric method for determination of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) as a model biomarker. Under optimal conditions, the linear response range is 0.001-1 ng mL-1, with a limit of detection as low as 1 pg mL-1. Graphical abstract Schematic illustration of a colorimetric immunoassay for the prostate specific antigen (PSA) with biotinylated peptide-Cu2+ nanoparticle (Cu-P NP) as the signal label based on the streptavidin (SA)-biotin interaction. The signal was produced by Cu2+-catalyzed oxidization of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). P: KGHFF.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the performance of a new enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) variant known as indirect "plasmonic ELISA" (pELISA) for the detection of Leishmania spp. infection. Serum samples from 170 dogs from an area where canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is endemic and from 26 healthy dogs from a nonendemic area were tested by indirect pELISA, and the results were compared to those of an indirect ELISA (both with recombinant antigen rK28) and those of an immunochromatographic test (dual-path platform, TR-DPP®) using real-time PCR on blood samples or conjunctival swabs as the gold standard. The pELISA, indirect rK28 ELISA and the TR-DPP® immunochromatographic test presented sensitivities of 94.7%, 89.5% and 79.0% and specificities of 100%, 92.7% and 91.5%, respectively. The analysis of the results revealed that the specificity of the indirect pELISA was greater than that of the method recommended by the Ministry of Health in Brazil and may increase the feasibility of diagnosis in resource-constrained countries because it does not require sophisticated instruments to read. Thus, this method can be used as an additional tool for the detection of Leishmania spp. infection in these areas.

Abstract
Recently, a novel Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) strategy has emerged, known as "plasmonic ELISA" (pELISA), which enables the detection of disease biomarkers at low concentrations with the naked eye. For the first time, this research has developed a signal-generation mechanism for the detection of anti-Leishmania sp. IgG antibodies with the naked eye using pELISA. The immunoassay incorporates an indirect ELISA with successive growth of gold nanoparticles to obtain blue or red-colored solutions in the presence or absence of anti-Leishmania sp. IgG antibodies in canine serum, respectively. The technique we developed was successfully tested in canine serum positive and negative for canine leishmaniasis (CanL), and was shown to be an effective method that could be used as an additional tool for CanL diagnosis. It will be particularly useful in resource-constrained countries, because it does not require sophisticated instruments to read the results, increasing the practicality of CanL detection in these areas.

Abstract
The traditional gold nanoparticle (AuNP) growth-based plasmonic ELISA (pELISA) strictly and directly controlled by reducing reagents can achieve high sensitivity, but it remains fragile toward the surrounding environment. This work developed a sandwich pELISA for Cronobacter detection in powdered infant formula samples by mediating AuNP growth through DNA. In this assay, DNA adsorbed on the surface of gold nanoseeds guided the anisotropic crystal growth with hydroxylamine as a reducing reagent, and the catalase-hydrogen peroxide (Cat-H2O2) system was introduced to bridge the DNA-directed AuNP growth and pELISA, as such DNA can be cleaved into fragments by the hydroxyl radical generated from oxidation of H2O2 through Fenton reagents. Under optimized conditions, the proposed pELISA can qualitatively detect Cronobacter species (Cronobacter muytjensii ATCC 51329) by the naked eye with a cut-off limit of 3 × 105 cfu/mL. This method also revealed a good linear range (3 × 102 to 3 × 107 cfu/mL) for quantitative detection of C. muytjensii ATCC 51329 with a limit of detection of 1.6 × 102 cfu/mL, which is approximately 162.5 times lower than that of horseradish peroxidase-based conventional ELISA (2.6 × 104 cfu/mL). By taking advantage of highly stable DNA-directed AuNP growth, the proposed method shows a good performance in powdered infant formula samples spiked with different concentrations of C. muytjensii ATCC 51329 with average recoveries ranging from 90.79 to 119.09% and coefficient of variation ranging from 4.24 to 9.55%. These values corresponded to an acceptable accuracy and precision for the proposed method. In brief, this work shows potential for screening other analytes in food safety, clinical diagnostics, and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) usually acts as a signal transmitter in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); therefore, developing an attractive ALP activity assay, especially using a preferable substrate, would help improve the efficiency and convenience of ELISA in practical applications. Herein we have first prepared an original and creative substrate, named m-hydroxyphenyl phosphate sodium salt ( m-HPP), with a desirable dephosphorylation site for ALP. On the basis of the ALP-catalyzed hydrolysis of m-HPP to resorcinol and its subsequent specific nucleophilic reaction with dopamine, we have exploited a fluorometric and colorimetric dual-readout ALP activity assay and ALP-based ELISA system. Under the employed experimental conditions, highly sensitive and specific assay of ALP and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has been accomplished in a straightforward way. Furthermore, the commendable sensing performance of our proposed ELISA in the determination of the cTnI level in diluted human serum unambiguously illustrates great potential in the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Single modal enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) covering colorimetric, fluorescence, and chemiluminescence techniques has been widely reported in recent years, whereas the combination of multiple signal channels in one immunosensing platform still faces huge challenges. Multimodal imaging will provide more comprehensive and precise diagnostic information by the combination of two or more imaging modalities. Inspired by this concept, we established a new kind of multimodal enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (M-ELISA) based on the unique properties of Au@Pt nanodendrites. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has been chosen as a model biomarker. Owing to the excellent photothermal effect and intrinsic peroxidase-like activity of Au@Pt nanodendrites, the concentration of cTnI can be quantificationally reflected by photothermal immunoassay, colorimetric immunoassay and ratiometric fluorescence immunoassay simultaneously. This developed M-ELISA demonstrated the good consistency with the chemiluminescence immunoassay method in clinical diagnosis for real serum samples.

With the achievements of nanotechnology and nanoscience, nanomaterials-based colorimetric immunoassays have been demonstrated to be promising alternatives to conventional colorimetric enzyme-linked immunoassays. This review is focused on the progress in colorimetric immunoassays with the signal amplification of nanomaterials, including nanomaterials-based artificial enzymes to catalyze the chromogenic reactions, analyte-induced aggregation or size/morphology change of nanomaterials, nanomaterials as the carriers for loading enzyme labels, and chromogenic reactions induced by the constituent elements released from nanomaterials.

Abstract
Infectious diseases claim millions of lives each year. Robust and accurate diagnostics are essential tools for identifying those who are at risk and in need of treatment in low-resource settings. Inorganic complexes and metal-based nanomaterials continue to drive the development of diagnostic platforms and strategies that enable infectious disease detection in low-resource settings. In this review, we highlight works from the past 20 years in which inorganic chemistry and nanotechnology were implemented in each of the core components that make up a diagnostic test. First, we present how inorganic biomarkers and their properties are leveraged for infectious disease detection. In the following section, we detail metal-based technologies that have been employed for sample preparation and biomarker isolation from sample matrices. We then describe how inorganic- and nanomaterial-based probes have been utilized in point-of-care diagnostics for signal generation. The following section discusses instrumentation for signal readout in resource-limited settings. Next, we highlight the detection of nucleic acids at the point of care as an emerging application of inorganic chemistry. Lastly, we consider the challenges that remain for translation of the aforementioned diagnostic platforms to low-resource settings.

Abstract
Herein, a redox-cycling was proposed to amplify the signal of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which was performed in a polystyrene microplate based on a classic sandwich-type. After the sandwich immunoreactions were finished, the alkaline phosphatase captured on a microplate triggered the hydrolyzation of l-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate to generate ascorbic acid (AA), which then reduced colorless tris(bathophenanthroline) iron(III) (Fe(BPT)33+) encapsulated in the micelle of TX-100 to pink red tris(bathophenanthroline) iron(II) (Fe(BPT)32+). In the presence of tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine, the oxidation product, dehydroascorbic acid, was transformed to AA quickly which then reduced Fe(BPT)33+ again and again, resulting in the generation of abundant Fe(BPT)32+ that could be read out conveniently by a commercial microplate reader or the naked eye. Because the negative charged TCEP with large size could hardly pass through the micelle, the reduction of Fe(BPT)33+ by TCEP directly was negligible. Experiment results for assay of alpha-fetoprotein (a model antigen) showed the cycling greatly improved the detection limit to 5 pg/mL, 2 orders of magnitude lower than that of conventional ELISA. The cycling also exhibited the advantages of simplicity and high reproducibility, implying its great potential for practical applications in biological and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Herein, for the first time we report a novel competitive fluorescence immunoassay for the ultrasensitive detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) using histone-ds-poly(AT) templated copper nanoparticles (His-pAT CuNPs) as the fluorescent indicator. In this immunoassay, glucose oxidase (Gox) was used as the carrier of the competing antigen to catalyze the formation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) from glucose. H2O2 was converted to a hydroxyl radical using Fenton's reagent, which further regulated the fluorescence signals of His-pAT CuNPs. Owing to the ultrahigh sensitivity of the ss-DNA to the hydroxyl radical, the proposed fluorescence immunoassay exhibited a favorable dynamic linear detection of AFB1 ranging from 0.46 pg mL-1 to 400 pg mL-1 with an good half maximal inhibitory concentration and limit of detection of 6.13 and 0.15 pg mL-1, respectively. The intra- and inter-assay showed that the average recoveries for AFB1 spiked corn samples ranged from 96.87% to 100.73% and 96.67% to 114.92%, respectively. The reliability of this method was further confirmed by adopting ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with the fluorescence detector method. In summary, this work offers a novel screening strategy with high sensitivity and robustness for the quantitative detection of mycotoxins or other pollutants for food safety and clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
We propose a plasmonic enhanced lateral flow sensor (pLFS) concept with an enhanced colorimetric signal by utilizing liposome encapsulating reagent to trigger the aggregation of gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Our signal enhancement strategy incorporates the simplicity of lateral flow immunoassays (LFIA) utilizing plasmonic enhancement. The conceptualized hybrid pLFS for onsite rapid detection of pathogens in low numbers in a user friendly format requiring simple steps is the first step in the translation of plasmonic enhancement sensing to a practical regime. The pLFS was carried out with a biotinylated liposome label ruptured to release branched polyethylenimine (BPEI) to trigger the aggregation of GNPs for colorimetric signal generation. BPEI has multiple amino groups and more positive charges in PBS buffer, therefore few of the BPEI groups could induce the aggregation of GNPs, resulting in an enhanced colorimetric signal to detect E. coli O157:H7. Compared with the reported conventional LFIA, the proposed pLFS demonstrated more than 1000-fold improvement in sensitivity. The pLFS could detect as low as 100 CFU/ml of E. coli O157:H7 in buffer and 600 CFU/ml E. coli O157:H7 in liquid food systems.

Abstract
We intended to develop a novel biosensor using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for indicating different concentrations of E. coli O157:H7 and smart phone imaging APP for monitoring color change of the AuNPs. The magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) modified with the capture antibodies and the polystyrene microspheres (PSs) modified with the detection antibodies and the catalases were simultaneously used to react with the target bacteria in the first mixing channel of the microfluidic chip, and hydrogen peroxide was injected and catalyzed by the catalases on the MNP-bacteria-PS complexes. After the mixture of the AuNPs and the crosslinking agents were injected to react with the catalysate in the second mixing channel and incubated in the detection chamber, the aggregation of the AuNPs was triggered through the crosslinking agents, resulting in the color of the AuNPs changing from blue to red. Finally, the color was measured using the smart phone imaging APP to determine the amount of the bacteria. This biosensor exhibited a good specificity and sensitivity for detection of E. coli O157:H7 in chicken samples with a lower detection limit of 50 CFU/mL.

Abstract
Enzyme-based assays have been widely applied in clinical diagnosis for decades. However, the intrinsic limitations of enzymes, such as low operation stability, mediocre sensitivity, and high cost in production and purification, heavily constrain their detection application. Here, an enzyme-free assay is reported that relies on the strong chelating capability of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium salt (EDTA•2Na, the chelator) for Au3+ ions, in which the cheap EDTA•2Na labeled by targeting moieties can selectively regulate the growth of plasmonic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) at the target site subjecting to the concentration of analyte in samples. Independent of ambient temperature and unstable H2O2, EDTA•2Na perform superregulation in AuNPs plasmonic signal generation with distinct tonality and outstanding reliability. Upon integrating with silica nanoparticles as the signal amplifying platform, EDTA•2Na-regulated bioassay can lead to detection-sensitivity enhancements exceeding three orders of magnitude in protein detection, compared with the gold-standard assay. The limit of detection of the HBsAg and alpha fetoprotein (AFP) pushes down to 2.6 × 10-15 and 2.5 × 10-19 g mL-1, respectively. EDTA•2Na-regulated bioassay is also challenged in the clinical serum sample detection and a good consistency is found with the chemiluminescence immunoassay method in clinics.

Abstract
Plasmonics-based biosensing assays have been extensively employed for biomedical applications. Significant advancements in use of plasmonic assays for the construction of point-of-care (POC) diagnostic methods have been made to provide effective and urgent health care of patients, especially in resourcelimited settings. This rapidly progressive research area, centered on the unique surface plasmon resonance (SPR) properties of metallic nanostructures with exceptional absorption and scattering abilities, has greatly facilitated the development of cost-effective, sensitive, and rapid strategies for disease diagnostics and improving patient healthcare in both developed and developing worlds. This review highlights the recent advances and applications of plasmonic technologies for highly sensitive protein and nucleic acid biomarker detection. In particular, we focus on the implementation and penetration of various plasmonic technologies in conventional molecular diagnostic assays, and discuss how such modification has resulted in simpler, faster, and more sensitive alternatives that are suited for point-of-use. Finally, integration of plasmonic molecular assays with various portable POC platforms for mobile health applications are highlighted.

Abstract
We have developed a sensitive colorimetric immunoassay with broad dynamic range using enzyme-catalyzed Ag growth on gold nanoparticle (NP)-assembled silica (SiO2@Au@Ag). To reduce Ag+ ion content and promote Ag growth on the assembled Au NPs, alkaline phosphatase (AP)-based enzymatic amplification was incorporated, which considerably increased the colorimetric read-out. As a model study, sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify target IgG. The immune complexes capture the Ab-IgG-AP-labeled detection Ab and trigger the enzyme-catalyzed reaction to convert 2-phospho-L-ascorbic acid to ascorbic acid in the presence of the target IgG. Ascorbic acid reduced Ag+ to Ag, which formed Ag shells on the surface of SiO2@Au and enhanced the absorbance of the SiO2@Au@Ag solution. Plasmonic immunoassay showed a significant linear relationship between absorbance and the logarithm of IgG concentration in the range of ca. 7 × 10-13 M to 7 × 10-11 M. The detection limit was at 1.4 × 10-13 M, which is several hundred folds higher than that of any conventional colorimetric immunoassay. Thus, our novel approach of signal-amplification can be used for highly sensitive in vitro diagnostics and detection of target proteins with the naked eye without using any sophisticated instrument.

On the basis of H2O2-mediated growth of gold nanoparticle (AuNPs), a novel plasmonic enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (pELISA) was developed with a polyclonal antibody for the ultrasensitive simultaneous naked-eye detection of tetrabromobisphenol A bis(2-hydroxyetyl) ether (TBBPA DHEE) and tetrabromobisphenol A mono(hydroxyethyl) ether (TBBPA MHEE), one of the major derivatives and byproducts of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), respectively. In this modified indirect competitive pELISA, glucose oxidase (GOx) played an important role leading to the growth of AuNPs through a reaction between GOx and glucose to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In addition, further signal amplification was achieved via a large number of GOx molecules, which were immobilized on silica nanoparticles carrying poly brushes (SiO2@PAA) to increase the enzyme load, and the whole complex was conjugated on the second antibody. Under the optimized conditions, 10-3 μg/L TBBPA DHEE can be distinguished via the observation of a colored solution, and the limit of detection (LOD) of the method using a microplate reader reaches 3.3 × 10-4 μg/L. In contrast, the sensitivity of the method was 3 orders of magnitude higher than that using conventional colorimetric ELISA with the same antibody. Furthermore, the proposed approach showed good repeatability and reliability after a recovery test fortified with a variety of targets was performed (recoveries, 78.00-102.79%; coefficient of variation (CV), 4.38-9.87%). To our knowledge, this is the first case in which pELISA was applied for the detection of small molecules via the production of H2O2 from GOx and glucose. The method will be widely used for the investigation of TBBPA DHEE and TBBPA MHEE in real environments.
