Recent Advances in CNT-based FET Transistor Biosensors to Detect Biomarkers of Clinical Significance

Graphene-Based Field-Effect Transistor for Ultrasensitive Immunosensing of SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 Antigen

“…Antibodies, enzymes, nucleic acid, aptamers, and molecularly imprinted polymers are some of the biomolecules used for the detection of target molecules. The advantage of antibodies over other biorecognition elements such as DNA and aptamers are lower cost, high affinity, highly stable, ease of functionalization, immobilization on different sensing elements such as graphene, and their capability to bind to a target, in different physiological conditions of clinical samples. , In addition to that, several advanced nanomaterials such as gold nanoparticles, iron oxide nanoparticles, organogels, and carbon nanotubes, − graphene have proven to be superior conductive materials to enhance the sensitivity of biosensors. , Graphene is a hexagonal two-dimensional (2D) material that has outperformed other nanomaterials in the construction of sensitive biosensors. − Due to their immense potential, graphene-based FETs are successfully employed for the development of various diagnostic platforms. − …”

Effects of mechanical properties of carbon-based nanocomposites on scaffolds for tissue engineering applications: a comprehensive review

“…160 The mechanical properties of carbon-based nanostructures have been of interest to scientists for a long time to strengthen the mechanical specication of composites or directly use these mechanical properties for their desired work. The mechanical effects of CNTs have been greatly noticed and used in applications such as medical, 161,162 pharmaceutical, 163 wound dressings, 164 various industries (namely aerospace, nano, and optics [165][166][167][168] ), strengthening of electrical devices, 169,170 and tissue engineering. 27 In tissue engineering, the appearance of the materials used, which originate from their mechanical traits, plays an important role.…”
