Improving the sensitivity of the competitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is important, given the increasing demands for the monitoring of chemical contaminants in food. The choice of nanosized marker is an essential task for improving the LFIA sensitivity. In this study, a CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD)-based LFIA combined with a portable reader was developed for rapid and quantitative detection of an antibiotic lincomycin (LIN). The performance of the proposed fluorescence LFIA was compared to the conventional gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-based LFIA realized with the same immunoreagents. The visual cutoff values were 10 ng/mL for AuNP-based LFIA and 20 ng/mL for QD-based LFIA. Furthermore, the instrumental limits of detection have been shown to be comparable for both nanosized markers and amounted to 0.4 ng/mL for AuNPs and 0.2 ng/mL for QDs, respectively. According to the results obtained, both LFIAs may be used for rapid, cost-effective, on-site testing of antibiotics, in particular LIN. However, the QD-based LFIA exhibits lowest limit of detection with the least immunoreagent consumption, which makes it economically beneficial.

Sulfamethazine (SMZ) as a broad antibiotic is widely used in livestock and poultry. However, the abuse of SMZ in livestock feed can lead to SMZ residues in food and the resistance of bacteria to drugs. Thus, a method for the detection of SMZ in food is urgently needed. In this study, quantum dot (QD) nanobeads (QBs) were synthesized by encapsulating CdSe/ZnS QDs using a microemulsion technique. The prepared QBs as signal probes were applied in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for the detection of SMZ in chicken and milk. Our proposed method had limits of detection of 0.1138–0.0955 ng/mL and corresponding linear ranges of 0.2–12.5, 0.1–15 ng/mL in chicken and milk samples, respectively. The recovery of LFIA for the detection of SMZ was 80.9–109.4% and 84–101.6% in chicken and milk samples, respectively. Overall, the developed QBs-LFIA had high reliability and excellent potential for rapid and sensitive screening of SMZ in food.

Nanotechnology is one of the fastest growing technologies in this era. Gold nanoparticle (AuNP) based immunoassays have been performed on the basis of antigen-antibody interaction using AuNP antibody conjugates. Lateral flow immunoassays(LFA) which are also based on AuNP antibody conjugates are useful innovation in nanotechnology and widely applied in medicine and research fields. However, there are some limitations of the present LFA kits such as sensitivity and stability. In the study, we showed the result of covalent conjugation of anti-rotavirus antibody and AuNP for generating a lateral flow immunoassay strip to detect rotavirus in fecal samples. The suitable conditions for coating polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the surface of AuNP were 10.0 mM PEG for 3 hours at room temperature (25 oC). Optimized conditions for covalent conjugation of antibody and AuNP were pH 4.0, 0.1 mg antibody/conjugate, 0.01 mM reactant EDC/NHS [1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride/(N-hydroxy sulfosuccinimide]. The coupling reaction was carried out at room temperature for 90 min. The conjugate pad, antibody immobilized nitrocellulose membrane strip were created with investigated conditions for generating an LFA test strip. The limit of detection of LFA test strip was determined by 1.6 × 105 virus particles/ml, three times lower than that of Rotaclone kit (UK). The generated strip could be used to detect rotavirus in fecal sample of patient.

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a toxic compound naturally produced by the genera Aspergillus. Distillers’ grains can be used as animal feed since they have high content of crude protein and other nutrients. However, they are easily contaminated by mycotoxins, and currently there are no rapid detection methods for AFB1 in distillers’ grains. In this study, a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) based on red fluorescent microsphere (FM), is developed for quantitative detection of AFB1 in distillers’ grains. The whole test can be completed within 15 min, with the cut-off value being 25.0 μg/kg, and the quantitative limit of detection (qLOD) being 3.4 μg/kg. This method represents satisfactory recoveries of 95.2–113.0%, and the coefficients of variation (CVs) are less than 7.0%. Furthermore, this technique is successfully used to analyze AFB1 in real samples, and the results indicates good consistency with that of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The correlation coefficient is found to be greater than 0.99. The proposed test strip facilitates on-site, cost-effective, and sensitive monitoring of AFB1 in distillers’ grains.

In this study, a competitive assay format using superparamagnetic nanoparticle-based lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) was developed for rapid, quantitative detection of shellfish major allergen tropomyosin (Tm). Sartorius CN140 nitrocellulose membrane and 0.05mg/mL Tm immobilized in the test line (T line) were optimized in order to improve the performance of the LFIA system. Calibration curves for Tm under PBS-T diluents and carp muscle extraction diluents were established. Limit of detection (LOD) for Tm calibrated by carp muscle matrix was 12.4ng/mL with a work range of 0.01 to 20μg/mL. According to magnetic signals change with the time of sample flowing on the strip, the qualitative time of the LFIA was about 10min, while the quantitative time of the LFIA was about 25min. 30 food species were detected separately by the LFIA and Western blot method to evaluate the specificity of the LFIA. Overall relative agreement of the two methods was 96.7% (29/30). Moreover, intra- and inter-assay precisions of the LFIA for Tm detection were <10.20% and <12.34%, respectively. The average recovery range in different food matrices was 80.3~111.8%, within a reasonable range. Our data confirmed that the superparamagnetic nanoparticle-based LFIA method developed in this study is rapid, simple, high specificity and capable of quantitative test. Consequently, the LFIA has the potential application in the field of point-of-care test of shellfish major allergen Tm.

Clorprenaline (CLP), a β2-adrenergic agonist, was first found in veterinary drugs for cold treatment in China in 2013. It is a potential new lean meat-boosting feed additive because it can promote animal muscular mass growth and decrease fat accumulation. A competitive colloidal gold-based lateral flow immunoassay system with a portable strip reader was successfully developed for rapid quantitative detection of CLP residue in swine urine. The detection system was optimized so that the detection can be completed within 9 min with a limit of detection of 0.15 μg·liter−1. The assay exhibited good linear range from 3.0 to 20.0 μg·liter−1, with reliable correlation of 0.9970 and with no obvious cross-reaction with five other β2-agonist compounds. Twenty spiked swine urine samples were tested by lateral flow immunoassay and liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry to confirm the accuracy of the system. Results show good correlation between the two methods. This method is rapid, sensitive, specific, and convenient. It can be applied in the field for on-site detection of CLP in urine samples.

Exosomes are attracting attention as new biomarkers for monitoring the diagnosis and prognosis of certain diseases. Colorimetric-based lateral-flow assays have been previously used to detect exosomes, but these have the disadvantage of a high limit of detection. Here, we introduce a new technique to improve exosome detection. In our approach, highly bright multi-quantum dots embedded in silica-encapsulated nanoparticles (M–QD–SNs), which have uniform size and are brighter than single quantum dots, were applied to the lateral flow immunoassay method to sensitively detect exosomes. Anti-CD63 antibodies were introduced on the surface of the M–QD–SNs, and a lateral flow immunoassay with the M–QD–SNs was conducted to detect human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) exosomes. Exosome samples included a wide range of concentrations from 100 to 1000 exosomes/µL, and the detection limit of our newly designed system was 117.94 exosome/μL, which was 11 times lower than the previously reported limits. Additionally, exosomes were selectively detected relative to the negative controls, liposomes, and newborn calf serum, confirming that this method prevented non-specific binding. Thus, our study demonstrates that highly sensitive and quantitative exosome detection can be conducted quickly and accurately by using lateral immunochromatographic analysis with M–QD–SNs.
