Article Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are widely used in biomedical sensing due to their tunable localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) optical properties. The need for traditional sensing methods that do not offer the advantages of timeliness and portability has been addressed by the introduction of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) strips, a point-of-care testing (POCT) tool, which offers the advantages of simplicity of handling, visualization, and short detection times. Thus, the combination between LSPR of AuNPs and LFIA strips has evolved to provide a powerful platform capable of ultrasensitive and multiplexed detection of a wide range of target analytes. In recent years, many new types of AuNPs with special morphologic structure and excellent plasmonic optical properties have been developed and used in LFIA. This review focuses on recent advances in novel morphologies and modifications of AuNPs as probes for LFIA strips, highlighting their applications in POCT detection through colorimetric, surface-enhanced Raman scattering, fluorescent, photothermal, and multimodal approaches.

The potential health risks posed by antipyrine-adulterated herbal teas and surface water underscore an urgent need for rapid detection methods. However, no rapid analytical techniques are currently available for antipyrine detection. This study proposes an effective Pharmacophore-based hapten design strategy, successfully generating a highly sensitive and selective antipyrine-specific antibody.

Highly luminescent nanospheres have been demonstrated to enhance the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) due to their loading of numerous luminescent dyes. Herein, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens (AIEgens)-embedded nanospheres (AIENPs) with red-emissive AIE-active europium complexes were developed as signal amplification probes for LFIA for rapid and point-of-care detection of COVID-19 biomarkers, nasopharyngeal carcinoma biomarkers, and methamphetamine. Compared with the colloidal gold-based rapid and point-of-care detection approach, the AIENPs-based approach showed more than 10 times sensitivity to the target proteins and small molecules, highlighting its significant potential for pathogen- or cancer-related diseases early detection and screening, as well as its applicability in public safety monitoring.

Piper yellow mottle virus (PYMoV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) are major viral pathogens causing stunt disease in black pepper and related Piper species. As no chemical control is available, early and accurate detection is essential to prevent virus spread through vegetative propagation. Existing PCR-based assays are effective but often time-consuming, expensive, and reliant on specialized equipment.

Aflatoxin M (AFM) is a common mycotoxin in dairy products, leading to both acute and chronic poisoning and the detection requirement is much higher than that of AFB1. In this study, we proposed a performance-enhanced lateral flow immunoassay (PE-LFIA) using in-situ gold deposition-mediated signal amplification strategy for effectively monitoring AFM. Of significance, this sensing signal on both T line and C line of lateral flow strip is improved by simultaneous and direct growth and deposition of gold shells on the surface of AuNPs.

Dysregulation of pseudopodium-enriched atypical kinase 1 (PEAK1) has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis, highlighting its significance as a biomarker for disease diagnosis and prognosis. The accurate and sensitive detection of PEAK1 is crucial for understanding cellular signaling pathways and identifying potential biomarkers for multiple diseases. Herein, Ag nanoflower (AgNF) was developed to provide superior Raman signal amplification with an analysis enhancement factor (AEF) of 2.
