Nanoparticles offer unique features such as a larger surface area and enhanced electrochemical performance compared to their contemporary matters. These properties make them suitable to be considered in bridging the lacunae associated with the use of bare electrodes in electrochemical sensors. Nanomaterials enhance the redox reversibility on the electrodes’ surfaces, hence, improving the reproducibility, sensitivity, and limit of detection of the electrodes/sensors. Their methods of synthesis (top-to-bottom and bottom-to-to-top) are tailored toward manipulating their sizes, shapes, and preventing their agglomeration. This review paper provides a synopsis on research done in synthesizing nanoparticles, modifying electrodes, and pinpointing the improved performances of the modified electrodes via known characteristic techniques, namely: cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. In addition, a perspective is given in terms of increasing the lifespan of the working electrodes and the need for non-faradaic sensors.
