Development of smartphone-based AIE fluorescence-quenching immunochromatographic sensors for the detection of illicit drugs in various complex sample matrices.

Anal Bioanal Chem

September 2025

GuangDong Engineering Technology Research Center of Antibody Drug and Immunoassay, Department of Biological Sciences and Biotechnology, College of Life Science and Technology, Jinan University, Guangzhou, 510632, China.

Illicit drug abuse poses a significant global threat to public health and social security, highlighting the urgent need for rapid, sensitive, and versatile detection technologies. To address the limitations of traditional chromatographic techniques-such as high costs and slow response times-and the drawbacks of conventional immunochromatographic sensors (ICS), including low sensitivity and non-intuitive signal outputs, a fluorescence-quenching ICS (FQICS) was developed. This sensor leverages fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between aggregation-induced emission fluorescent microspheres (AIEFMs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).

Background: The use of methamphetamine has continued to rise in the US. In addition to facilitating dopamine neurotransmission, methamphetamine indirectly increases glutamate release, which activates N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs). Ketamine is a noncompetitive NMDAR antagonist.

Swiss-Webster and C57BL/6 mice are differentially sensitive to the stimulant effects of methamphetamine.

Pharmacol Biochem Behav

Methamphetamine is a highly addictive psychostimulant with significant neurobiological consequences, yet strain-dependent differences in its effects remain poorly understood. This study investigated behavioral and molecular differences in Swiss-Webster and C57BL/6 mice following methamphetamine exposure. Swiss-Webster mice exhibited greater behavioral sensitivity to methamphetamine compared to C57BL/6 mice, as demonstrated by lower peak doses required to elicit locomotor stimulation and conditioned place preference.

Site-specific assessment of illicit drug consumption patterns in South Korea via wastewater-based epidemiology.

Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Pusan National University, Busan 46241, Republic of Korea; Institute for Environment and Energy, Pusan National University, Busan 46241, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is increasingly used as a complementary tool for monitoring drug use at the population level, providing anonymized, real-time estimates of community drug consumption. Site-specific applications of WBE can identify localized patterns that national or municipal surveys may overlook. This study presents the first comprehensive, site-specific assessment of illicit drug use in South Korea using WBE.
