Abstract African swine fever virus (ASFV) causes a highly contagious and often lethal swine viral disease, and leads to tremendous economic losses to the swine industry. Unfortunately, there are no vaccines and effective antiviral agents available to prevent and control ASFV outbreaks. Therefore, it is necessary to develop simple and rapid strategies to monitor ASFV-infected pigs to restrain its spread. In the current study, ASFV capsid protein p72 was expressed along with its chaperone pB602L to form trimers in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. The p72 trimers were subsequently labeled with colloidal gold to develop a immunochromatographic strip. The strip showed high specificity to ASFV-positive serum and no cross-reactivity to other swine virus positive sera. Importantly, the strip showed a higher sensitivity of detecting ASFV antibodies in both positive standard serum and clinical serum samples than a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. Taken together, these results demonstrate the strip as a reliable diagnostic tool against ASFV infection, which will be appropriate for application in prevention and control of ASFV.
Key points
• ASFV p72 trimers were successfully generated . • A colloidal gold strip was developed based on ASFV p72 trimers . • The strip is appropriate for detecting ASFV antibodies in the field .

Fatty acids (FAs) are of interest to the areas of food science and medicine because they are important dietary sources of fuel for animals and play important roles in many biological processes. The health effects of FAs are different due to the diversity of olefinic bonds in the alkyl chains including number, position and configuration. However, the discrimination of FAs is difficult from a chemical sensing perspective due to the lack of diversity in terms of functional groups. Until now, only a few chemosensors have been developed for selective sensing of FAs based on their overall shape, however they are still limited in discrimination of FAs with subtle structural differences, moreover, they cannot be used for rapid and in situ inspections. Herein, for the first time, we designed a test paper for in situ colorimetric inspection for FAs based on the combination of the highly selective binding of Ag+to olefinic bonds and Ag+mediated color variation of 3,3′,5,5′,-tetramethylbenzidine. As a result, the sensor exhibited high sensitivity and good selectivity for five FAs with subtle structural differences. Furthermore, our method described herein was successfully applied to monitor the structural variations of FAs and quality changes in mixture edible hot pot oils with heat treatment in time course. Hence, the test paper presented herein holds great potential in the inspection of fats and edible oils in food industries.Keywords:test paper;colorimetric sensor;fatty acid;edible oil

Test strips as one of micro-devices are widely concerned in the fields of point-of-care detection and in-field diagnosing. For the purpose of on-site detection of tyramine, a carbon dots-molecularly imprinted fluorescent sensing test strip with high selectivity has been successfully obtained via a rapid in-situ preparation procedure (about 2.5 h). Here, the layer composed of carbon dots-molecularly imprinted polymer (CDs-MIP) with the function of the recognition and signal transduce has been formed on the surface of the filter paper strips via the sol-gel method. The developed test strip displayed a high specificity (Imprinting factor, IF = 4.96); and its fluorescence emission was quenched linearly with the increase of tyramine concentration from 0.5 to 10.0 mg L −1 . The limit of detection (LOD) is 0.059 mg L −1 (3 σ/s ). The application potential was verified by sensing of tyramine in rice vinegar and white rice vinegar with the recoveries of 90.9-104.4% (RSD < 5.8%). Many advantages including a rapid preparation and high selectivity make the fluorescence strip suitable for on-site detection of tyramine. In addition, the preparation procedure can also be easily transferred to the preparation of the fluorescence strip toward other targets.

Histamine is a biogenic amine with various physiological functions. However, excessive consumption of histamine can lead to various symptoms, and pose a threat to human lives. A ratiometric fluorescent test strip for visual detection of histamine was developed based on CB-Ni 2+ @CDs probes. As the concentration of histamine increases, the test strips exhibit a transition in fluorescence signal from yellow-green to blue. The RGB values were extracted from the images, and used for quantitative analysis of histamine. The method had a linear range of 0–1.0 mM, with a detection limit of 0.086 mM. The test strips were employed for the detection of histamine, and the recovery rate was found to be in the range of 88.3% to 104.69%, indicating a high level of accuracy. The uniqueness of the test strips lies in their ability to be produced simply by mixing CB, Ni 2+ on a suitable polyvinyl alcohol/wood cellulose fiber substrate.

Driven by economic interests, the abuse of antibiotics has become a significant concern for humans worldwide. As one of the most commonly used antibiotics, oxytetracycline (OTC) residue in animal-derived foods occurs occasionally, which has caused danger to humanity. However, there is still no simple and efficient solution to detect OTC residue. Here, an easily-operated colorimetric strategy for OTC detection was developed based on nickel ions (Ni2+) immobilized carboxymethylcellulose/polyacrylonitrile nanofibrous membranes (Ni@CMC/PAN NFMs). Owing to numerous O- and N-containing groups OTC has a strong tendency to complex with Ni2+on the strips, inducing a color change from light green to yellow visible to the naked eye. The NFMs structural features, CMC functionalization process, and Ni2+immobilization amount was carefully regulated to assure OTC detection whilst maintaining the inherent characteristics of NFMs. With the benefits of the large specific surface area (SSA) and small pore size of NFMs, the strips not only exhibited a rapid response (2 min), and low detection limit (5 nM) but also performed with good reversibility and selectivity concerning OTC detection over other antibiotics. The successful development of such enchanting nanofibrous materials may provide a new comprehension into the design and improvement of colorimetric strips.Keywords:nanofibrous membranes;nickel ions;colorimetric strips;oxytetracycline detection

Urine examinations are widely applied in hospitals using urine test strip analyzers or other sophisticated professional instruments. However, such methods are inconvenient health monitoring of patients at home. Herein, we construct an optical device for point-of-care testing (POCT) for urine analysis at home or on the spot. A black box and color calibration curve are established to eliminate the influence of ambient light with an independent internal lighting system included in the device. A Raspberry Pi with a CSI camera is programmed to automatically collect the strip images and identify the HSV values of the image with an image processing algorithm. During this process, these corrected colors are converted to concentration values by preloaded standard curves. Under optimal conditions, the proposed POCT device can quantitatively and automatically detect glucose within 1 min, with linear detection ranging from 2 mM to 60 mM and a detection limit of 1.16 mM. In addition, the device demonstrates satisfactory accuracy and quantitative analysis of ketone bodies, glucose, protein, occult blood, pH, and leukocytes in human urine samples with high-resolution concentrations, achieving results similar to those obtained with hospital instruments. The proposed device is portable and user-friendly, providing convenient colorimetric analysis for urine. Furthermore, the proposed device also has considerable potential for the development of in vitro diagnosis methods through combination with other test strips.Keywords:colorimetry detection;HSV parameters;point-of-care testing;urine test

A rapid, simple, sensitive, and specific immunochromatographic test strip was developed for the detection ofPantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii(Pss) in corn seed which was soaked overnight and then centrifuged for precipitate re-dissolved as samples. A pair of sensitive monoclonal antibodies for the immunochromatographic test strip was generated by mice immunization and cell fusion. Under optimized conditions, the lower detection limit of the strips for Pss was 1 × 105cfu/mL both in 0.01 M phosphate buffer solution and corn seed samples, with no cross-reactivity with other common plant pathogens. The developed strip is useful and rapid for the detection of Pss in corn seed samples.Keywords:Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii(Pss);immunochromatographic test strip;monoclonal antibody

This Letter aimed to develop an efficient method for the determination of cyanide ion (CN − ). A novel colorimetric chemosensor 4-[(1 E )-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethenyl]-1-allylpyridinium bromide (HPEAPB) was synthesized. HPEAPB displayed good selectivity toward CN − over other competing anions in ethanol. A color change from yellow to red was immediately observed upon the addition of CN − and the limit of detection (LOD) was 3.4 × 10 −6 mol L −1 . The sensing mechanism was discussed by UV–vis, 1 H NMR titration, and a comparison study. Colorimetric test paper for CN − was prepared by attaching HPEAPB to a chromatography paper , which could be used to detect CN − in environmental samples as simply as a pH-indicator paper for pH value. The LOD of the test paper for CN − was 2.0 × 10 −4 mol L −1 . This detection method for CN − has potential applications in cyanide ion containing fields by combination of rapid and real-time advantages.

Hypochlorous acid (HClO) as well as its ionic form (ClO − ), representative of reactive oxygen species (ROS), are essential players in all sorts of biological processes. The abnormal level of each can lead to the onset of various diseases. Besides, Sodium hypochlorite , a commonly-used bleaching agent in our daily lives, could also result in breathing and skin problems when overexposed. Therefore, developing a molecular chemosensor for sensing HClO is of biological and environmental importance. Though many such chemosensors have been reported, new HClO chemosensors with different sensing performances may still come in handy in certain situations. In this work, we have developed a new coumarin-based chemosensor, CM-hbt , for realizing both ratiometric and colorimetric imaging detection of HClO in live cells. Notably, we further explored its application in sensing HClO in plant mung beans as well as fabricated an easy-to-use paper strip apparatus for facilitating its quick detection, which is seldomly seen in other HClO chemosensors. All the analysis results confirmed the high sensitivity and selectivity of this novel chemosensor. DFT calculations were used to decipher the underlying sensing mechanism of CM-hbt . Overall, this work presents a novel chemosensor, CM-hbt , as a colorimetric and ratiometric chemosensor for realizing imaging detection of HClO in a variety of different model systems, which highlights its broad spectrum of application potentials.

Wheat gliadin is one of the most important causes of gluten sensitivity. This study aimed to develop a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and gold nanoparticle-based lateral flow (LFIA) strips to detect wheat allergen in food. Through cell screening, ten monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against gliadin and after optimization were obtained, a pair of mAbs suitable for its detection (capture antibody: mAb 7; detection antibody : HRP-labeled mAb 6) were identified. Based on two of these antibodies, a sandwich ELISA with limit of detection (LOD) of 60 ng/mL in negative milk, and more importantly, negligible cross-reactivity to other allergens was developed. The average recoveries for gliadin in negative milk were 99.16%–100.07% using the sandwich ELISA. We also developed LFIA strips for the rapid detection of gliadin with visual limit of detection (vLOD) of 25 ng/mL and calculated LOD value of 6.56 ng/mL in negative milk. The test results of positive samples obtained from the LFIA strips were highly consistent with those of the sandwich ELISA. Thus, the developed LFIA strip is an effective and reliable tool for the rapid and on-site detection of wheat allergen in milk.

A novel, highly sensitive “on-off-on” fluorescent probe ( E )- N ’-((1 H -imidazol-2-yl) methylene) -4-(5, 5-difluoro-1, 3, 7, 9-tetramethyl-5 H -4 λ 4 ,5 λ 4 -dipyrrolo [1, 2- c :2′, 1′- f ] [1,3,2] diazaborinin-10-yl) benzohydrazide ( BDB ) was developed in this study, and its structural and spectral properties were characterized by 13 C NMR, 1 H NMR, X-ray, ESI-MS, ultraviolet and fluorescence photometry. BDB could specifically and efficiently identify Cu 2+ among many other metal ions with a fluorescence quenching efficiency of 92.7% and a recognition limit of 0.65 μM in CH 3 CN/HEPES (7:3, v/v, pH = 7.23) buffer. The energy difference between BDB and BDB -Cu 2+ complex was calculated by DFT. The BDB -Cu 2+ complex could continuously identify GSH in the same system and show an obvious fluorescence enhancement response with a recovery efficiency of approximately 91% and a low recognition limit of 0.02 μM, which is significantly lower than the physiological concentration of GSH in living cells. The applicability of BDB is verified by the strip test. BDB can also be used to detect GSH in HeLa cells, which expand the application of fluorescent chemical sensors in biology.

Carbohydrate antigen 72-4 (CA72-4) is an important biomarker associated closely with diagnosis and prognosis of early gastric cancer. How to realize quick, sensitive, specific, and quantitative detection of CA72-4 in clinical specimens has become a great requirement. Herein, we reported a CdSe/ZnS quantum dot-labeled lateral flow test strip combined with a charge-coupled device (CCD)-based reader was developed for rapid, sensitive, and quantitative detection of CA72-4. Two mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against CA72-4 were employed. One of them was coated as a test line, while another mAb was labeled with quantum dots and coated onto conjugate pad. The goat anti-mouse IgG was immobilized as a control line. After sample was added, a sandwich structure was formed with CA72-4 and these two mAbs. The fluorescent signal from quantum dots (QD)-labeled mAb in sandwich structure was related to the amount of detected CA72-4. A CCD-based reader was used to realize quantitative detection of CA72-4. Results showed that developed QD-labeled lateral flow strips to detect CA72-4 biomarker with the sensitivity of 2 IU/mL and 10 min detection time. One hundred sera samples from clinical patients with gastric cancer and healthy people were used to confirm specificity of this strip method; results showed that established strip method own 100 % reproducibility and 100 % specificity compared with Roche electrochemiluminescence assay results. In conclusion, CdSe/ZnS quantum dot-labeled lateral flow strips for detection of CA72-4 could realize rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of clinical samples and could own great potential in clinical translation in near future.
