Abstract
Sandwich-based LFA device was successfully demonstrated to detect salivary lipopolysaccharides of P. gingivalis from human saliva. Although saliva is an attractive biofluid due to non-invasive sampling and excellent availability, isolating targeted biomarkers for analysis in saliva is challenging because of interferences from various biomolecules in saliva, especially by -amylase. Combined pre-treatment using potato starch and syringe filtration has been developed to reduce the interference from -amylase. Pretreated saliva presented a comparable LOD ~46 ng/mL with excellent selectivity versus other LPS and proteins. Future directions include not only the development of aptamer-based LFA but also adapting the Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) technology for sensing target analytes in LFA in conjunction with novel silver-coated Au nanostar particles. Our prior research using aptamer in LFA and preliminary results of SERS detection in LFA will be presented to support our future directions.
