LFT signal recording by an analytical instrument.

Type of assayType of instrumentationPhysical principle of the instrumental assayReference

LFT for p24 protein from human immunodeficiency virus, gold nanoparticles conjugated with a monoclonal antibody against p24 were usedLaser alighting specific spots, IR camera visually recording temperatureThermal contrast reading[41]

Detection of 16S rRNA gene from Escherichia coli by hybridization and use of biotinylated probe and peroxidase conjugated with streptavidin, peroxidase was responsible for the chemiluminescent reactionDigital camera with CMOS chipDigital camera recorded chemiluminescence provided by peroxidase[76]

Detection of fumonisin, labeling of antibodies by peroxidase allows performing chemiluminescent chemical reaction that is instrumentally measuredDigital camera with CCD chipDigital camera recorded chemiluminescence provided by peroxidase[77]

LFT immunoassay of progesterone based on labeling by carbon colloidDigital scannerStrips were scanned and digital data analyzed[78]

The LFT assay comprised of the use of streptavidin-biotinylated DNA probes modified with gold nanoparticlesSmartphone cameraDetected spots were photographed by a smartphone camera, and coloration was measured[79]

LFT where coloration was initiated Prussian blue nanoparticles as artificial nanozymesSmartphone cameraDetected spots were photographed by a smartphone camera, and coloration was measured[80]
