The present review presents important research work carried out relating to potential applications of nanostructures loaded conductive polymer composite materials, particularly the nanocomposites of polypyrrole, polyaniline, polythiophene, Chitosan and Cellulose based polymers. Wide literature data is abstracted in this review pertaining to synthesis of nanocomposites, target analysts, sensitivity of the reported electrode material and the contribution of conducting polymer to achieve high efficiency. A significant attention has been given to the conductive polymer composites in the detection of pathogenic microorganism and their DNA, particularly through electrochemical methods.
