A one-step immunoassay was developed for five types of food-poisoning-related bacteria using a switching peptide and antibodies isolated from unimmunized horse serum. The one-step immunoassay involves mixing samples and reagents in a homogeneous solution without any washing steps. In this work, a one-step immunoassay configuration was developed using isolated antibodies labelled with an organic fluorescence quencher and a switching-peptide labelled with a fluorescent dye. The fluorescence-labelled switching-peptide was bound to the antigen-binding site of the isolated antibodies before binding to the bacteria (no fluorescence signal), and the switching-peptide dissociated from the antibodies as soon as they bound to the bacteria (fluorescence signal turns on). By quantifying the generated fluorescence signal, the one-step immunoassay presented here allows microbial detection without any washing step.

A sandwich electrochemical immunosensor was proposed for the sensitive detection of protective antigen ( PA) toxin based on cadmium sulphide nanocrystals (CdS NCs) and polypyrrole-gold nanoparticle-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PPy-AuNPs/MWCNTs). Herein, PPy-AuNPs/MWCNTs were used as a biocompatible and conducting matrix for immobilization of rabbit anti-PA antibody [RαPA antibody, capturing antibody (Ab1)] and to facilitate excellent electrical conductivity. PPy-AuNPs/MWCNTs were synthesized through a one-step chemical reaction of pyrrole and Au on the surface of MWCNTs.

There is a phenomenon of combined contamination of fungal toxins, of which aflatoxin B (AFB) is the most toxic, and deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination is common. The use of antigens for double or multiple testing of mycotoxins is easy to cause environmental pollution, and surrogate antigens have become necessary. The small molecule and susceptibility to genetic modification of nanobodies can be used to develop alternative antigens for mycotoxins.

The adjustment of the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of polymeric carbon nitride (CN) is essential for its application in sensitive immunoassays. However, such modification through aggregation-induced emission (AIE) has not yet been reported. Herein, aggregation-induced ECL in CN oligomer (CNO) was induced through the introduction of a rotatable imine moiety, with the resulting material exhibiting excellent performance in the targeted immunodetection of neuron-specific enolase.

An electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was developed for the highly sensitive and specific detection of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) and the rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). H-FABP is a biomarker that is highly specific to cardiac tissue and is associated with a range of cardiac diseases. Following myocardial injury, the rate of increase in H-FABP levels is greater than that observed for myoglobin and troponin.

Constant antigenic changes, new variants and easy transmission of SARS-CoV-2 virus should acquire greater zoonotic attention and need to remain alert. In this retrospective study the aim was to analyze seropositivity to SARS-CoV-2 in dogs by commercial ELISA. The Virus neutralization test (VNT) was modified for the purpose of confirmation of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in ELISA-positive dog sera.
