Abstract

The use of electrochemical biosensors is highlighted for SARS-CoV-2 detection and COVID-19 diagnosis. In a brief description of virus structure, fundamental features of proteins and nucleic acid are approached for a comprehensive strategy over biosensor designs. Relevant works are described and related to specific structural proteins used as viral biomarkers. Furthermore, the challenges and perspectives are pointed to the evolution of electroanalysis and the establishment of methods comparable to the gold standard, RT-PCR.
