Comments:
The manuscript is mostly well-written except a few minor errors (already corrected in the galley proof), which are listed below:
- In the 4th sentence of 2nd paragraph of Introduction, “There two main categories” should be corrected to “There are two main categories”.
- The 2nd sentence of 3rd paragraph of Introduction should be reframed as, “A persistent infection by HPV can be developed by other factors like use of hormonal contraceptives, which can lead to cervical cancer in women”.
- In the last sentence of 5th paragraph of Introduction, the word “analysis” should be replaced with “analyse”.
- In the 2nd last line of Conclusion, the word “exiting” should be corrected to “existing”.
· Punctuations and articles, e.g., “the” were missing in several places throughout the text.

Comments:
This review summarizes the recent developments in the detection of cervical cancer using biosensors because of some loopholes existing in the present screening technologies available. The study discusses about the future aspects possible for the detection of cervical cancer using nanotechnology-based DNA-enabled sensors and their advantages over various conventional methods present currently. The review concludes that in the coming years, biosensors with nanomaterials can be a great assist in the detection of human papillomavirus at an early stage with greater precision.

Further comments on the paper
Comments: This review outlines the current applications of biosensors for the diagnosis of human papillomavirus (HPV), as compared to the conventional techniques for measuring HPV that have some limitations. Cervical cancer has the highest mortality rate worldwide. Nanotechnology has emerged as a powerful diagnostic method for various cancers and is developing promising biosensor platforms for the ultrasensitive detection of HPV. The traditional methods used for cervical cancer are less sensitive, whereas nanotechnology has greatly improved the sensitivity. The conventional techniques for the detection of cervical cancer have some major drawbacks such as being expensive, long assessment duration, skilled professionals to handle the instrument. Therefore, the development of biosensor for the diagnosis of HPV is significant as it has explored new approaches leading to overcome these limitations.
Q: Would you recommend this manuscript for further publication?
A: Yes - Suitable to be published
If you have any questions and clarifications you can write to the journal.
