Abstract
A new pandemic named as COVID-2019 (coronavirus disease 2019) has stunned the world. This pandemic situation arises due to an enormous death toll of human lives across the world by the infection of SARS-CoV-2 that results in pneumonia-associated respiratory syndrome. It is repentantly observed to speedy spread over the world day by day because of need in rapid detection, proper medication, and proven treatment. Since it's evolved in November 2019, scientists were engaged to find its genome code. However, the current efforts of the scientist (both physical and biological) in the world is to invent specific antiviral drugs and physical therapeutic against COVID-19 and rapid detection method. Hence we have tried to discuss in this report rapid detection system of the viral genome like +ssRNA, and S (spike) - protein containing into SARS-CoV-2 by magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). To detect SARS-CoV-2 pathogens, giant magnetoresistive (GMR) biosensor along with MNPs may play a significant role. We expect that this detection system will be an effective challenge to control the outbreak of COVID-19.
