  The manufacture of low-cost, large-scale biosensors is a necessity to assist in the early diagnosis of many diseases, such as cancer, and to detect infections such as COVID-19. A method used to increase the sensors' sensitivity and selectivity is the incorporation of metallic nanoparticles in the polymeric matrix on which the active layer of the biosensor is deposited. This is usually ach…
