Covid-19 remains a global pandemic surging with different variants like (Omicron) in various countries. An escalation in random testing for Covid-19 is considered as the golden standard by WHO to control the spread of Corona virus. RT-PCR and nucleic acid hybridization strategies are two highly sensitive outstanding tests used for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in the DNA by the former and RNA/DNA by the later. Apart from the test for virus, antigen, and antibodies, other alternative hematological tests like CRP, Ferritine, IL-6, Blood Platelets and WBC, and plasma became essential for the detection and management of Covid-19. Overcoming the limitations of a rapid, efficient, low-cost, and easy-to-implement test kits are in imperative need to meet these requirements. Electrochemical sensors are considered as potential and ultrafast point-of-care sensors used as self-testing kits. In this work, we review the various modified electrodes with different nanomaterials such as graphene, CNTs, and nano-dopants used as electrochemical sensors in association with testing various different parameters for detection of covid-19. A detailed discussion on the merits of present testing patterns and scope of screen-printed electrochemical sensors modified with different nanomaterials and their advantages is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
