• personalized medicine, it is possible to develop optimized microneedles for different populations and injection areas at scale. For example, microneedles are a promising alternative to oral and systemic medications for pain relief [20][21][22]. Chronic and acute pain can occur anywhere in the body; however, if

• production is advantageous for reducing design transfer and going to market faster. Microneedle fabrication is a rapidly evolving field that is overcoming traditional fabrication challenges and opening the door for personalized medicine.

Thus, using magnetic nanoparticles for biosensing not only enhances sensitivity but also effectively reduces sample preparation needs. This review focuses on the use of magnetic nanoparticles for in vitro detection of
