abstract = {Rapid, low-cost, and on-site detection of antibiotic residues is a global priority for ensuring food safety and environmental monitoring. In this study, we developed a nanomaterial-based colorimetric aptasensor using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with ampicillin-specific aptamers. The sensing mechanism is based on aptamer–ampicillin binding, followed by NaCl-induced aggregation, leading to a distinct red-to-blue transition and a plasmon resonance shift. Spectroscopic and morphological analyses also confirmed adsorption of aptamer onto AuNPs surface and interaction between aptamer and ampicillin while molecular docking confirmed strong aptamer–ampicillin affinity through multiple hydrogen bonds, hydrophilic, sulfur, electrostatic, and hydrophobic interactions. To enable portable, field-ready application, we integrated a TCS34725-based Red/Green/Blue (RGB) device controlled by a NodeMCU-32 microcontroller. This handheld sensor achieved a detection limit of 0.221 ppm using the Green/Red ratio, which is nearly two times lower than the 0.43 ppm obtained by UV–Vis spectroscopy, demonstrating a substantial improvement in sensitivity. Furthermore, the platform was integrated with smartphone imaging and machine-learning–based data processing for online accessibility, with validation across 1–8 ppm ampicillin demonstrating robust predictive performance and normalization improving accuracy by up to 3.95%. This mobile-enabled strategy, combining AuNP-based sensing, portable RGB detection, and smartphone/cloud integration, offers a scalable and practical solution for on-site monitoring of antibiotic contamination, bridging laboratory precision with real-world applicability.}
