What are the Advantages of Chemiluminescence at the Nanoscale?
The integration of chemiluminescence with nanotechnology offers several advantages:
Sensitivity: Nanoscale materials have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, allowing for enhanced sensitivity in detection systems. Specificity: By functionalizing nanomaterials with specific biomolecules, it is possible to achieve high specificity for target analytes. Miniaturization: Devices based on chemiluminescence and nanotechnology can be made extremely small, facilitating their use in point-of-care diagnostics and portable sensors. Energy Efficiency: Chemiluminescent reactions do not require external light sources, reducing the energy consumption of detection devices.
