Recent developments in nanomaterials have come to extensive use in various fields, especially in the biomedical industry. Numerous significant obstacles still need to be overcome, particularly those about utilizing nanomaterials in biomedical science, before they can be used for medicinal purposes. Major issues in biomedicine include biological functioning, harmony, toxic effects, and nano-bio surface properties. Thus, researchers may use cutting-edge characterization approaches to study nanomaterials for biomedical applications. Two-dimensional nanomaterials and polymers are crucial components of biological systems. Polymer-based nanomaterials are flexible and more resistant to chemical attack than other NPs. Polymers easily form composite or functionalization with other NPs to improve their performance compared to the traditional NPs. The current review article discussed nanomaterial performance, including carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, MXene and polymers-based biomedical applications. The current state of nanomaterials in the biomedical area is illustrated in this summary article, along with applications and the significance of characterization approaches. The advanced methods for examining the interior geometry, structure, and morphology of nanomaterials are discussed in this piece of writing, including Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Magnetic resonance force microscopy (MRFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Finally, the authors discussed the issues associated with nanomaterials in biomedical applications.
