How Does Nanotechnology Enhance Detection of Cancer Biomarkers?
Nanotechnology offers several innovative methods to improve the detection of cancer biomarkers. Nanoscale materials such as nanoparticles, quantum dots, and nanoshells can be engineered to bind specifically to cancer biomarkers, enhancing the sensitivity and specificity of detection methods. These nanomaterials can be integrated into various diagnostic tools, including biosensors and imaging devices, enabling the identification of cancer at much earlier stages than traditional methods.
