Magnetoelastic Immunosensor for the Rapid Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in Bioaerosols.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a protein-coated, single-stranded RNA virus that parasitizes and infects primates, including humans. The current detection methods are mainly carried out using humans as a medium, such as a chest computed tomography (CT) examination, nucleic acid detection, antibody detection, and antigen detection. In addition, SARS-CoV-2 in bioaerosols is an important way of transmission and infection, which has attracted wide attention. In this paper, we simulate a sampling system of SARS-CoV-2 in bioaerosols and detect SARS-CoV-2 in bioaerosols by means of a magnetoelastic (ME) sensing device based on an Android intelligent terminal, which can directly detect SARS-CoV-2 in bioaerosols in a certain unit environment. This approach aims to achieve early detection and prevention. The experimental results show that the sampling system can successfully collect SARS-CoV-2 in bioaerosols. In the linear range of 5-20 ng/mL, the ME sensing detection system results closely match those of the calibration instrument (VNA), with goodness-of-fit values of 0.997 and 0.995, respectively. This work demonstrates that the ME sensing detection system proposed is stable, highly specific, real-time, rapid, and has certain reference values and feasibility.
