Abstract
Up to date, application of nanomaterials and nanotechnology has made great advances. Many novel nanomaterials with unique properties are increasingly being exploited to apply for biosensors, improving the property of biosensor and making them higher selectivity and sensitivity, less response time and lower detective limitation. Here we review some of the main advances in this field over the past few years, explore the application prospects, and discuss the issues, approaches, and challenges, with the amin of promting to develop nanomaterials-based biosensor nanotechnology and improving their application in disease diagnosis and biosafety examination.
