Comparative Assessment of Different Gold Nanoflowers as Labels for Lateral Flow Immunosensors

Many studies have found that gold nanoparticles with branched surfaces (nanoflowers) are markers for immunosensors that provide higher sensitivity gains than the commonly used spherical gold nanoparticles. Although the analytical characteristics of nanoparticle-using systems vary significantly depen...
