A dual-color plasmonic immunosensor for salivary cortisol measurement

Abstract

Lifestyle-related disorders are a public health problem worldwide and early diagnosis represents the key to successful therapies. In this framework, rapid Point-Of-Care (POC) tests are one of the most promising...

Cortisol sensing by optical sensors

“…Pompa and coworkers combined the plasmonic properties of gold nanospheres and nanostars to create an efficient paper-based immunosensor for the visual assessment of salivary cortisol. 93 The dual-color system allowed for the easy and immediate evaluation of cortisol levels, indicated by a color change from blue to pink in the detection zone. Additionally, this approach demonstrated potential as a fast and portable monitoring system, capable of distinguishing different target concentrations (Fig.…”

A multi-line platinum nanozyme-based lateral flow device for the colorimetric evaluation of total antioxidant capacity in different matrices

“…This easy and fast procedure (the entire process takes about 30 seconds) allowed us to remove mucins from saliva in a single-step, requiring about 1 mL of sample. 51 …”

“…This easy and fast procedure (the entire process takes about 30 seconds) allowed us to remove mucins from saliva in a single-step, requiring about 1 mL of sample. 51 As described above, we rst identied the three classes of AOX levels based on the spectrophotometric measurements using 9 saliva samples (Fig. 3a).…”

Semiquantitative Determination of Thiocyanate in Saliva Through Colorimetric Assays: Design of CNN Architecture via Input-Aware NAS

“…POC devices have recently attracted a surge in attention in various branches of research and clinical diagnostics [24][25][26]. Several types of POCs have been developed for different applications [27][28][29][30] including lab-on-a-chip [31], lab-on-a-disc [32], microfluidic paper-based analytical [33,34], lateral flow devices [35,36], and isothermal nucleic acid amplification [37].…”
