Abstract

For the last decades, a plethora of Nanoparticles (Nps) have been developed and evaluated for their potential application in molecular diagnostic and therapeutic agents. Nanotechnology is a field that is vast in making an impact in all fields of human life. Nanoparticles are microscopic particles that measure 1–100 nm in size, with various applications in the biomedical field. Advances in nanotechnology and medical science have spurred the development of engineered nanoparticles and nanomaterials with particular focus on their applications in molecular diagnosis.  The aim of this review is to provide the state of the art of the applications of Nanoparticles (noble metal NPs, especially gold, silver NPs, magnetic NPs, fluorescent NPs, Carbon NPs especially quantum dots) as emerging molecular diagnostics that take advantage of the unique nanoscale properties of nanoparticles (NPs) to increase the sensitivity, detection capabilities of the disease.
