Abstract

Abstract A sensor array based on the pattern recognition strategy is good at distinguishing subtle changes of extremely similar mixtures over a wide range of analyte types. Particularly, colorimetric sensor arrays based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been applied widely in many fields for its simplicity, rapidity, cost-effective production, multi-information output, easy visualization of the color change, and even assay by naked eyes. This comprehensive review focuses on the development and state of the art of AuNPs-based colorimetric sensor arrays. Firstly, this review briefly describes the principle of a sensor array and discusses the design of the cross-reactive sensing elements. Secondly, the popular chemometric and statistical techniques (including hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), principal component analysis (PCA), and linear discriminant analysis (LDA)) for analyzing the data from a sensor array have also been presented. Thirdly, a variety of applications of AuNPs-based colorimetric sensor arrays published throughout the literature have been reviewed in detail according to different sensing mechanisms (surface plasmon resonance, catalytic activity of mimetic enzyme, and multidimensional information) between AuNPs and target analytes. Finally, the remaining challenges and future trends in the development of colorimetric sensor array based on AuNPs have also been discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
