Essential biosensor use has become increasingly important in drug discovery and recognition, biomedicine, food safety, security, and environmental research. It directly contributed to the development of specialized, reliable diagnostic instruments known as biosensors, which use biological sensing components. Traditional biosensors have poor performance, so scientists need to develop advanced biosensors with promising selectivity, sensitivity, stability, and reusability. These are all parameter modifications associated with the characteristics of the sensing material. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and MXenes are promising as targeted sensing agents in advanced functional materials because of their promising chemical and physical properties and limited toxic effects. Based on available data and sensing performance, MXene is better for biosensing applications than CNTs. Because of their large specific surface area (SSA), superior electrical conductivity, and adaptable surface chemistry that facilitates simple functionalization and robust interactions with biomolecules, MXenes are typically regarded as the superior option for biosensors. Additionally, because of their hydrophilic nature, they are more suited to biological settings, which increases their sensitivity and efficacy in identifying biological targets. MXenes are more suitable for biosensing applications due to their versatility and compatibility with aquatic environments, even if CNTs have demonstrated stability and muscular mechanical strength. However, MXenes offer better thermal stability, which is crucial for applications in diverse temperature environments. This study reviews and compares the biosensing capabilities, synthesis methods, unique properties, and toxicity of CNTs and MXenes. Both nanomaterials effectively detect various pollutants in food, biological substances, and human bodies, making them invaluable in environmental monitoring and medical diagnostics. In conclusion, CNTs work better for biosensors that must be strong, flexible, and long-lasting under different conditions. MXenes, on the other hand, work better when chemical flexibility and compatibility with wet environments are essential. |
