What Are the Advantages of Nanotechnology in Diagnostics?
The integration of nanotechnology in diagnostics offers several advantages:
High Sensitivity and Specificity: Nanoparticles can detect low levels of biomarkers, leading to early diagnosis. Speed: Nanotechnology enables rapid detection, often providing results in minutes. Miniaturization: Diagnostic devices can be made smaller and more portable. Multiplexing: Ability to detect multiple targets simultaneously. Cost-Effectiveness: Potentially lower costs due to reduced reagent volumes and faster processing times.
