A Multiepitope‐Based Lateral Flow Assay for Leprosy Antibodies

open access: yesAnalysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
An innovative lateral flow assay for leprosy diagnosis is based on gold nanoparticles and synthetic Mycobacterium leprae epitopes conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin protein to enhance antibody detection. This strategy provides a rapid, accurate, and low‐cost approach for resource‐limited settings, enabling the early detection of infection. Leprosy
