The amalgamation of nanostructures with modern electrochemical and optical techniques gave rise to interesting devices, so-called biosensors. A biosensor is an analytical tool that incorporates various biomolecules with an appropriate physicochemical transducer. Over the past few years, metal oxide nanomaterials (MONMs) have significantly stimulated biosensing research due to their desired functionalities, versatile chemical stability, and low cost along with their unique optical, catalytic, electrical, and adsorption properties that provide an attractive platform for linking the biomolecules, for example, antibodies, nucleic acids, enzymes, and receptor proteins as sensing elements with the transducer for the detection of signals or signal amplifications. The signals to be measured are in direct proportionate to the concentration of the bioanalyte. Because of their simplicity, cost-effectiveness, portability, quick analysis, higher sensitivity, and selectivity against a broad range of biosamples, MONMs-based electrochemical and optical biosensing platforms are exhaustively explored as powerful early-diagnosis tools for point of care applications. Herein, we made a bibliometric analysis of past twenty years (2004-2023) on the application of MONMs as electrochemical and optical biosensing units using Web of Science database and the results of which clearly reveal the increasing number of publications since 2004. Geographical area distribution analysis of these publications shows that China tops the list followed by the United States of America and India. In this review, we first describe the electrochemical and optical properties of MONMs that are crucial for the creation of extremely stable, specific, and sensitive sensors with desirable characteristics. Then, the biomedical applications of MONMs-based bare and hybrid electrochemical and optical biosensing frameworks are highlighted in the light of recent literature. Finally, current limitations and future challenges in the field of biosensing technology are addressed.
