Nanoscale detection methods offer several advantages over traditional techniques, including: - Increased Sensitivity: The high surface area-to-volume ratio of nanomaterials enhances the interaction with target analytes, leading to improved detection limits. - Enhanced Specificity: Functionalization of nanomaterials with specific molecules allows for selective binding to target substances, reducing false positives. - Real-Time Monitoring: Many nanoscale sensors provide rapid response times, enabling real-time analysis and monitoring.
