Food allergy is increasingly prevalent and poses notable health risks, which underscores the urgent need to develop reliable and sensitive detection methods for effective identification of food allergens. This study aims to address the limitations of existing methods by developing an immunoassay utilizing bacteriophage/carbon dots (CDs)@silica core-shell nanospheres. Two CDs with different emission wavelengths (513 nm for Green CDs, 645 nm for Red CDs) were synthesized for signal development and amplification.

Realizing plasmonic nanogaps with a refractive index ( = 1) environment in metallic nanoparticle (NP) structures is highly attractive for a wide range of applications. So far in self-assembly-based approaches, without surface functionalization of metallic NPs, achieving such extremely small nanogaps is challenging. Surface functionalization introduces changes in the refractive index at nanogaps, which in turn deteriorates the desired plasmonic properties.

GraPhage13 aerogels (GPAs) are ultralow density, porous structures fabricated through the self-assembly of graphene oxide (GO) and M13 bacteriophage. Given GPA's high surface area and extensive porous network, properties typically associated with highly adsorbent materials, it is essential to characterize its sorption capabilities, with a focus on unlocking its potential for advanced applications in areas such as biomedical sensing and environmental monitoring. Herein, the water, ethanol and acetone sorption properties of GPA were explored using dynamic vapor sorption (DVS).

The development of multivalent nanoprobes has garnered considerable interest due to their enhanced sensitivity and precision in diagnosing and monitoring diverse diseases. Despite significant advances in nanobiotechnology, the optimal density of binding motifs to maximize the diagnostic efficacy of biosensors remains incompletely understood. Herein, we investigate the influence of multivalency in the functional performance of avidity-based biosensors.

Virus-based nanoparticles, particularly M13 bacteriophage, present a promising solution due to their genetic modifiability, intrinsic adjuvanticity, and efficient antigen presentation capabilities. Here we developed a programmable M13 phage-based personalized cancer vaccine enabling single-step antigen-adjuvant assembly.
