Ways to Reach Lower Detection Limits of Lateral Flow Immunoassays

Abstract: This chapter considers factors influencing sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay and modern developments that are focused on reaching lower detection limits. The existing variety of proposed approaches is classified in accordance with the "big five rules" for these assays, including proper sample, receptor, interaction, response, and output. The solutions for rapid extraction of target analytes and preventing negative influence of extractants are considered. Role to antibodies affinity and specificity is cha… Show more

“…Even in conventional LFA development, navigating trade-offs in system performance typically requires a long process of manual optimization over many experimental parameters, including those related to reagents and reaction conditions, materials, and test signals. 105,106 For example, in conventional LFA development, reagent optimization requires (at least) screening for high-affinity antibodies, selecting colorimetric labels, assessing the efficacy of attachment chemistry, cross-testing the capture and detection reagents, and evaluating the impact of blocking, spotting, drying, and/or rehydrating reagents in porous materials. Reaction condition optimization can include evaluating with sample matrices, and various buffers (for storage, reaction, wash/rinse, blocking, and/or running), surfactants, and other additives; testing the impact of various temperature, salt, and pH conditions; and testing porous materials for specific and non-specific binding.…”

“…Due to the increased number of controlled compounds in medical diagnostics, food safety and ecological monitoring, there is a need for multiplex test systems [6,7]. The location of several binding lines with reactants of different specificity is the best technological solution for multiplex ICA [8][9][10][11]. Such tests for 2-8 analytes are widely used to determine antibiotics in milk, mycotoxins in grain, etc.…”

“…The devices for these assays (test strips) typically comprise multimembrane composites with preapplied reagents. Contact of the test strip with the sample leads to the movement of the sample solution along the membranes, and to the binding of a detectable label in certain zones of the strip [5]. The duration of the analysis is determined by the time it takes for the solution to move and for specific labeled complexes to form in sufficient quantities.…”
