Non-spherical gold nanoparticles enhanced fluorescence of carbon dots for norovirus-like particles detection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Norovirus is a common pathogen that causes foodborne outbreaks every year and the increasing number of deaths caused by it has become a substantial concern in both developed and underdeveloped countries. To date, no vaccines or drugs are able to control the outbreak, highlighting the importance of finding specific, and sensitive detection tools for the viral pathogen. Current diagnostic tests are limited to public health laboratories and/or clinical laboratories and are time-consuming. Hence, a rapid and on-site monitoring strategy for this disease is urgently needed to control, prevent and raise awareness among the general public.

Results

The present study focuses on a nanohybridization technique to build a higher sensitivity and faster detection response to noro
