Abstract:

Immunoglobulin G (IgG), serving as the pivotal effector molecule in humoral immunity, plays an irreplaceable role as a biomarker in disease diagnosis, therapeutic evaluation, and infection surveillance. Its accurate detection constitutes a fundamental technological cornerstone for personalized medicine. Nanomaterials have emerged as innovative solutions for constructing next-generation IgG biosensors by leveraging their exceptional surface-to-volume ratios, tunable surface chemical properties, and multifaceted signal transduction capabilities, thereby overcoming the inherent limitations of conventional detection methods in sensitivity, detection thresholds, and cost-effectiveness. This review systematically examines recent advancements in IgG detection biosensors utilizing noble metal nanomaterials, metal derivative nanomaterials, carbon nanomaterials, quantum dots, and rare-earth-doped upconversion nanoparticles. Through comparative analysis of their advantages and disadvantages, we provide critical insights for developing high-sensitivity, cost-efficient, and portable IgG detection platforms.

Key words: Nanomaterials, Biomarker, Biosensor, Immunoglobulin G, IgG detection
