Gao P, Wu F, Liu J, Li R, Jiang X, Pan W, Zhao F,. Development of a dual-component biosensor for rapid and sensitive detection of influenza H7 and H5 subtypes. Talanta. 2024 Aug 13;280:126704
The outbreak of highly pathogenic influenza virus subtypes, such as H7 and H5, presents a significant global health challenge, necessitating the development of rapid and sensitive diagnostic methods. In this study, we have developed a novel dual-component biosensor assembly, each component of which incorporates an antibody fused with a nano-luciferase subunit. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of this biosensor in enabling the rapid and sensitive detection of influenza H7 and other subtypes. Additionally, we successfully applied the biosensor in paper-based assay and lateral flow assay formats, expanding its versatility and potential for field-deployable applications. Notably, we achieved effective detection of the H7N9 virus using this biosensor. Furthermore, we designed and optimized a dedicated biosensor to the sensitive detection of the influenza H5 subtype. Collectively, our findings underscore the significant potential of this dual-component biosensor assembly as a valuable and versatile tool for accurate and timely diagnosis of influenza virus infections, promising to advance the field of influenza diagnostics and contribute to outbreak management and surveillance efforts.
