Background: Salmonella, a foodborne pathogen poses significant threats to food safety and human health. Immunochromatographic (ICTS) sensors have gained popularity in the field of food safety due to their convenience, speed, and cost-effectiveness. However, most existing ICTS sensors rely on antibody sandwich structures which are limited by their dependence on high-quality paired antibodies and restricted sensitivity.

To solve the laborious issues associated with indirect ELISA, a novel bacterial coloration immunofluorescence strip (BCIFS) for antibody detection using colored bacteria instead of a labeled antibody as the antigen and tracer simultaneously and goat anti-mouse IgG as the test line was developed. The affinity range survey of BCIFS indicated that hybridoma cell cultures of E.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats -associated protein (CRISPR/Cas) has been developed as a precise, efficient, affordable and sensitive nucleic acid detection tool due to its efficient targeted binding ability and programmability. At present, biosensors based on CRISPR-Cas system have shown excellent performance in the detection of nucleic acid of pathogens, which has attracted widespread attention, and is expected to replace the conventional detection methods. This review summarizes the latest research progress of biosensors based on CRISPR/Cas system for detecting nucleic acid of pathogens.

The applicability survey of AICFS indicated that E. coli O157:H7 (D3) and Acidovorax citrulli (6F) hybridoma cell cultures could be detected, but Vibrio parahemolyticus (H7, C9) hybridoma cell cultures were missed compared with the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Therefore, the detection of O157:H7 in food is particularly important. In this paper, we report a lateral flow immunoassay strip (LFIS) based on aggregation-induced emission (AIE) material labeling antigen as a fluorescent probe for the rapid detection of O157:H7.
