Considering that the strip method is simple and convenient for users, a Europium nanosphere-based time-resolved fluorescent immunochromatographic assay (TRFICA) for the rapid screening of 4,4'-dinitrocarbanilide (DNC) was developed to improve the performance of strip assays. After optimization, TRFICA showed IC, the limit of detection, and cut-off values of 0.4, 0.07, and 5.0 ng mL, respectively. No significant cross-reactivity (CR < 0.1%) with 15 DNC analogs was observed in the developed method. TRFICA was validated for DNC detection in spiked chicken homogenates, and recoveries ranged from 77.3% to 92.7%, with coefficients of variation of <14.9%. Moreover, the time needed for the detection procedure, including the sample pre-treatment, was less than 30 min for TRFICA, which had never been achieved before in other immunoassays. The newly developed strip test is a rapid, sensitive, quantitative, and cost-effective on-site screening technique for DNC analysis in chicken muscle.

Simultaneous detection of mycotoxins is important for food safety. In this study, a magnetic-encoded fluorescent nanosphere-based competitive immunosensor (cFMEIS) with 2×2 array was first developed for simultaneous detection of aflatoxin B (AFB), ochratoxin (OTA), deoxynivalenol (DON), and zearalenone (ZEN) in wheat. Specifically, magnetic nanoparticles with strong and weak responses were conjugated with mycotoxin antigens as capture probes.

Contamination of grains and related products by fumonisins (FBs) is increasingly becoming a serious food security issue. The aim of this work was to develop a europium fluorescent microsphere-based time-resolved fluorescence immunochromatographic assay (TRFICA) for FB detection in different grains, including corn, corn flour, wheat, rice and brown rice. Standard curves for the five types of grain matrix were established, and showed good linearity (R > 0.

Bladder cancer is a common malignant tumour with high recurrence rate. Cytokeratin 19 fragments (Cyfra21-1) in urine has been regarded as a promising biomarker for the prognosis and diagnosis of bladder cancer due to the relevance of its high urinary level to the bladder cancer patients. However, currently detection methods of Cyfra21-1 have their limits, such as complicated steps, limited sensitivity or unsatisfying specificity.

A novel europium ligand 2,2',2'',2'''-(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diyl) bis (methylene) bis (azanetriyl) tetra acetic acid (BC-EDTA) was synthesized and characterized. It shows an emission spectrum peak at 610 nm when it is excited at 360 nm, with a large Stock shift (250 nm). It is covalently coated on the surface of a bare silica nanosphere containi free amino groups, using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-Hydroxysuccinimide.
