Application of nanomaterials in in-vitro diagnostics / 中国医疗器械杂志

ABSTRACT

Nanomaterials appear to be promising for a number of applications in in-vitro diagnostics, mainly due to the biocompatibility, specific surface and conduction activity. The use of nanostructures as diagnostic tools has the advantage of very low limit of detection achievable, high sensitivity, strong selectivity and the possibility to fabricate point-of-care diagnostic devices. With the problems of nanotechnology solved, nanomaterials had already put a broad impact in the field of clinical medical examination.
