What This Study Found

Next-generation BNP/NT-proBNP biosensors achieve femtogram-level detection using fluorescence, SERS, and nanozyme technologies, with smartphone-compatible readouts for point-of-care testing.

Key Numbers

Detection limits at femtogram-to-picogram levels; technologies include FRET, quantum dots, SERS, nanozyme LFA, and ECL; smartphone-compatible designs.

How They Did This

Critical review of BNP/NT-proBNP detection technologies published 2020-2025.

Why This Research Matters

Current BNP testing requires hospital labs. Portable, ultra-sensitive biosensors could enable heart failure monitoring at home or in primary care.

What This Study Doesn't Tell Us

Most technologies still in research phase. Clinical validation in real patient samples limited. Regulatory approval pathways long. Cost-effectiveness not assessed.
