Tris stabilized AuNPs based lateral flow immunochromatography for the simultaneous detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus and rotavirus on-site.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and rotavirus has posed a significant threat to the pig industry annually across different nations, resulting in huge economic losses. The frequent co-infection of these two viruses in clinical settings complicates the process of differential diagnoses. Rapid and accurate detection of PEDV and rotavirus is in great demand for timely diarrhea disease prevention and control. In this study, tris stabilized AuNPs were prepared and a sensitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) sensor was developed for the simultaneous and rapid detection of PEDV and rotavirus on site. After the system optimization, the established LFIA can simultaneously identify PEDV and rotavirus with limits of detection (LOD) of 1.25 × 10 ³ TCID ₅₀ mL ^-1 and 3.13 × 10 ² pg mL ^-1 , respectively. When applying for clinical samples, the LFIA show a concordance of 95 % and 100 % to reverse transcript polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for PEDV and rotavirus respectively. Therefore, this LFIA can qualitatively detect PEDV and rotavirus in 18 min with high sensitivity and accuracy without any sophisticated equipment and operation, making it a promising candidate for the early diagnosis of PEDV or/and rotavirus diarrhea on site.
