نبذة مختصرة : Neurofilament light chain (NF-L) is a protein found in neurons of the nervous system and is widely used as a biomarker for neurological disorders. However, the current methods for detecting NF-L levels are complicated, expensive, and require specialized equipment, making it challenging to implement in a point-of-care (POC) setting. In this study, we developed a gold nanoshell (AuNS)-assisted lateral flow assay (LFA) based test strip for the POC detection of NF-L at a low ng/mL level (8 ng/mL = 117.65 pM). The test strip is a simple, rapid, and cost-effective method for detecting NF-L, making it suitable for use in a POC setting for the diagnosis and treatment of various neurological disorders. With its ease of use and reliability, the paper-based LFA is a valuable tool for the diagnosis and management of neurological conditions.Clinical Relevance - The AuNS-assisted LFA test strip developed in this study offers a rapid, cost-effective, and simple method for detecting NF-L levels, making it of great interest ... : 45th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2023; Sydney; 2023-07-24 - 2023-07-27 ...
