“…Against that background, the demand for rapid, selective, repeatable, cost-effective, ready-to-use, ultrasensitive biosensors has continually risen. Of the numerous biosensors using colorimetric [ [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] ], scanometric [ 35 ], electrochemical [ 36 , 37 ], and fluorometric [ 38 , 39 ] systems to detect well-known human viruses [ [40] , [41] , [42] ], colorimetric assay is a simple, direct method of visual detection that does not require any complicated equipment. Metal nanoparticle-based colorimetric assays are commonly used to diagnose diseases in humans, and the development of those biosensors has also enabled the development of rapid colorimetric diagnostic tests that can be used even at home.…”
