    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of detecting Ebola virus in a sample. The methods include contacting the sample with a plurality of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that are conjugated with at least two sets of antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof, that binds to at least first or second epitopes of glycoproteins, such as secreted glycoproteins (sGPs) from the Ebola virus under conditions sufficient for the antibodies, or the antigen binding portions thereof, to bind to the first or second epitopes of the glycoproteins from the Ebola virus in the sample to produce bound glycoproteins. The methods also include detecting the glycoproteins from the Ebola virus when aggregations of the bound glycoproteins form with one another. Related reaction mixtures, devices, kits, and systems are also provided.
