Nanocomposites for Advanced Biosensing Applications

Abstract

Nanocomposites have an essential role in a number of different applications these days. Therefore, they have been utilised in the biosensing field. The integration of nanocomposites in different types of biosensors for detection or mentoring of different analytes results in improved performance biosensors. In this chapter, the role of nanocomposites in biosensors will be studied, with a number of examples, of such improvements in these sensors' performance. An overview of the biosensors will be given first, along with key characteristics to quantity the enhancing in their performance. After that, a detailed discussion of nanocomposites as materials and their roles in biosensor development will be included.
