Summary: The study presented a AuNP-based signal-amplifying sandwich biosensor for detecting target molecules without the need for conformational changes in ligands. Thrombin was used as a model target, triggering an extension reaction via hybridization of two probes and subsequently RNA synthesis initiation. The amplified RNA drives aggregation or dispersion of the AuNPs, leading to observable color differences in the solution. This detection system can be universally applied to a wide range of ligands due to its ligand-independent design.

Summary: This study presents a pH-regulated gold in situ growth (GISG) strategy to amplify the colorimetric signal and improve the performance of traditional gold nanoparticle-based immunochromatographic assay (AuNP-ICA). By lowering the pH of the growth solution, the reducibility of hydroxylamine is weakened, resulting in the crystallization and growth of Au3+ on the AuNP surface instead of self-nucleation. The proposed GISG strategy shows improved sensitivity, low background, robust operation, and good reproducibility. It has the potential to enable ultrasensitive and rapid diagnosis of viral infections and redefine immunochromatographic diagnostics.

Summary: In order to achieve high-throughput analysis of mycotoxins, there is a great need for point-of-care (POC) methods that do not require expensive instruments or specialized technicians. The conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which is widely used for screening, has low sensitivity and is affected by competing antigens. In this study, we developed a plasmonic-photothermal ELISA that uses color-temperature dual-modal signals for highly sensitive detection of ochratoxin A (OTA), with the signal amplified by a bifunctional M13 phage. Under optimal conditions, the colorimetric and photothermal signals showed good dynamic linearity for quantitative OTA detection, with detection limits of 12.1 and 8.6 pg mL(-1), respectively. Additionally, the proposed ELISA could be visually determined with a cutoff limit of 78 pg mL(-1) based on a distinct color change from deep blue to red. The method also showed high accuracy and robustness when applied to OTA-spiked corn samples. Overall, this strategy provides a promising method for eco-friendly and sensitive POC screening of OTA, and can be easily adapted for other analytes by changing the specific mimotope sequence.
