The sphere of Nanotechnology encompasses most of our lives and houses biomedicine and biomedical advancements. Nanoparticles owing to their minuscule sizes and due to various physicochemical and electrical properties have been exploited in pharmaceutical industries, agriculture, packaging, cosmetic, food industries. Nanomedicine is a laboratory-designed molecular-level pharmaceutical material that has revolutionized diagnostic techniques and therapeutics. Nanoscience and nanotechnology and their wide applications have become spread field worldwide because nanomaterials have novel and unique properties. Nanotechnology involves understanding and manipulating materials normally in the size range of 1 to 100 nm, where they show completely novel physicochemical properties from their bulk counterpart. The capacity to study compounds at the molecular level has aided the hunt for materials with exceptional qualities for medical applications. Nanotechnology in recent days is applied in the designing of nano biosensors. Nanobiosensors are biological molecules immobilized onto the surface of a signal transducer. The application of nano biosensors in the field of disease detection has increased in recent years which has influenced in research of cancer and biosensing. Due to the high surface area of nanoparticles, they are important in the production of nano biosensors with high levels of sensitivity and diminish the response times. However, a comprehensive review regarding the type, mode of function, and their application in various diseases is missing. Nano Deterministic lateral displacement technology that provided exosome splitting based on size differences has resulted in providing the much-needed boost to cancer research. The time taken for cancer screening has been reduced drastically. that This review aims to describe the utilization of nano deterministic lateral displacement technology, nano biosensors, and their applications in certain disease diagnoses.
