Popis: The science of nanotechnology has revolutionized every field and industrial sector impacting environmental science, transportation, energy, food safety, information technology, and medicine. Nanotechnology in medicine essentially is aimed at providing solutions for disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. The evolution of biosensors forms a part of this technological advancement that is recently thriving to understand the highly complex and dynamic biological systems. Although the importance of biosensors was identified as early as in 1962, the amalgamation of the biosensors and nanotechnology has added a new dimension in the field of medicine and tissue engineering. The current review highlights the concepts of nano-biosensors and their relevance in the field of tissue engineering.
