Cytokines are well known to be involved in numerous biological responses with diverse mechanisms of action, including the inflammatory process. The so-called "cytokine storm" has recently been associated with cases of severe COVID-19 infection.Lateral flow microarray (LFM) devices have been constructed for multiplex detection of cytokines. The LFM-cytokine rapid test involves the immobilization of an array of capture anti-cytokine antibodies. Here, we describe the methods to create and use multiplex lateral flow-based immunoassays based upon the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

A highly sensitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for imidacloprid, a widely used neonicotinoid insecticide, has been developed. The LFIA realizes the indirect coupling of anti-imidacloprid antibodies and gold nanoparticle (GNP) labels directly in the course of the assay. For this purpose, the common GNPs conjugate with anti-imidacloprid antibodies and are changed into a combination of non-modified, anti-imidacloprid antibodies, and the GNPs conjugate with anti-species antibodies.

Fumonisins, a class of mycotoxins predominantly produced by species, represent a major threat to food safety and public health due to their widespread occurrence in staple crops including peanuts, wine, rice, sorghum, and mainly in maize and maize-based food and feed products. Although fumonisins occur in different groups, the fumonisin B series, particularly fumonisin B1 (FB1) and fumonisin B2 (FB2), are the most prevalent and toxic in this group of mycotoxins and are of public health significance due to the many debilitating human and animal diseases and mycotoxicosis they cause and their classification as by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as a class 2B carcinogen (probable human carcinogen). This has made them one of the most regulated mycotoxins, with stringent regulatory limits on their levels in food and feeds destined for human and animal consumption, especially maize and maize-based products.

The lateral flow assay is a strip-based analytical method for the portable and convenient detection of analytes of interest. It has the advantages of visual observation, autonomous sample flow, fast coloration time, minimal tedious operation procedures, and reliance on specialized instruments. However, the rough surface of the nitrocellulose membrane renders it difficult for the immobilized nucleic acids to remain in an ordered arrangement, and the immobilized nucleic acids are also liable to be digested in a complex matrix, inducing limited sensitivity and anti-interference.

Structural variants of the synthetic opioid fentanyl are a major threat to public health. Following an investigation showing that many derivatives are poorly detected by commercial lateral flow and related assays, we created hapten conjugate vaccines using an immunogenic virus-like particle carrier and eight synthetic fentanyl derivatives designed to mimic the structural features of several of the more dangerous analogues. Immunization of mice elicited strong antihapten humoral responses, allowing the screening of hundreds of hapten-specific hybridomas for binding strength and specificity.
