“…Based on the thermal signal of gold nanoparticle (GNP), the detection sensitivity of commercial LFIA for influenza A, malaria, and Clostridium difficile has been improved. − Recently, many nanomaterials with good photothermal properties have been used to improve the analytical performance of photothermal LFIAs. Gold composite nanomaterials such as Au@Pd, black phosphorescence@Au, Fe 3 O 4 @Au, and Pd@Au were designed as photothermal labels in LFIAs for the detection of exosomes, antibiotics, mycotoxin, and bacteria. − However, GNP suffers from low photothermal conversion efficiency and photothermal stability, limiting its further applications. It is reported that carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotube (CNT) and graphene oxide (GO), have good photothermal properties and can be utilized to develop photothermal sensing strategies in LFIAs. , Two-dimensional transition metal sulfide nanomaterials with high specific surface area and high photothermal effect have demonstrated great potential in various rapid detection methods. , Based on MoS 2 and WS 2 , photothermal LFIAs were developed for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium and clenbuterol. , The ReSe 2 is a highly anisotropic two-dimensional nanomaterial with attractive physical properties, good photothermal stability, and high photothermal conversion efficiency. , It is expected to be an ideal two-dimensional nanomaterial for photothermal detection.…”
