Pathogens are one of the primary threats to the environment, food safety and public healthcare. Rapid, selective and sensitive detection methods or biosensors are crucial in are crucial in effectively evaluating pathogen-induced emergency. Phage display is powerful in rapidly screening specific biological probes with high affinity.

Viral antigen detection can identify those people who are most likely at risk of spreading the disease, but most based on antibodies with limited stability and sensitivity. Peptides offer several advantages over antibodies, such as low cost, smaller size and good stability.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for accurate and sensitive detection methods to effectively control its spreading. Herein, we screened by phage display two peptides M4 (sequence: DPCGERICSIAL) and M6 (sequence: SCSSFLCSLKVG) with good affinity and specificity to monkeypox virus (MPXV) B21R protein.
