Abstract

Biosensor devices are composed of bioreceptor, transducer and detector that detect and aid in measuring parameters of some primary metabolites, immunological molecules and many more materials. These devices are of various types including piezoelectric which exhibit high efficiency based on sensitivity, response time, selectivity and linearity. Currently, newly developed nanobiosensors help in transduction and are employed to sense biomolecules bearing high sensitivity. Nanobiosensors also could be homogeneous or heterogeneous in nature and equally function in sensing mechanism of the biosensing technology. Thus, different nanobiosensors are greatly utilized to reduce poison in products, disease diagnostics and in many biomedical applications. Based on all these factors and the positive impact of using these devices; nanobiosensor types, applications, challenges and preferred solution in biomedical technology were considered and discussed in this work.
