Are There Any Challenges in Using Nanotechnology for Biochemical Assays?
While nanotechnology offers significant advantages, there are also challenges to consider:
Toxicity: Some nanomaterials may pose biocompatibility and toxicity issues. Standardization: The lack of standardized protocols can lead to inconsistent results. Cost: The synthesis and functionalization of nanomaterials can be expensive. Regulatory Challenges: Regulatory approval for nano-enhanced assays can be complex.
