What Are the Applications of Nanotechnology in Biomedical Sensing?
The applications are vast and include:
Early Disease Detection: Nanotechnology allows for the early detection of diseases such as cancer by identifying biomarkers at very low concentrations. Real-time Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of glucose levels in diabetic patients is possible with nanosensors. Drug Delivery: Nanosensors can also be integrated with drug delivery systems to release drugs at specific sites within the body. Environmental Monitoring: Detection of pathogens or toxins in the environment that can affect human health.
