Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential devices for point-of-care testing of a wide range of diseases. Their sensitivity depends on the variable properties of the conjugated nanoparticle probes that produce a signal in response to a specific biomolecule. As a result, developing LFAs that are rapid, stable, sensitive, specific, and affordable can be challenging.
