Hybrid polymer dot-magnetic nanoparticle based immunoassay for dual-mode multiplexed detection of two mycotoxins

Chem Commun (Camb). 2023 Aug 15;59(66):9968-9971. doi: 10.1039/d3cc02586a.

Abstract

We designed polymer dot-magnetic nanoparticle nanohybrids for signal enhancement in a test strip platform. Besides, the multicolor emissions of the Pdots embed multiplexing ability for this test strip. Two mycotoxins, aflatoxin B1 and zearalenone, were tested with the determined limits of detection of 2.15 ng mL-1 and 4.87 ng mL-1, respectively.
