What is Nanotechnology?
Nanotechnology involves manipulating materials on an atomic or molecular scale, generally below 100 nanometers, to create new materials and devices with unique properties. By leveraging the principles of
quantum mechanics and
nanomaterials, this field has the potential to enhance performance across various industries.
How is Nanotechnology Impacting Medicine?
In the medical field, nanotechnology offers groundbreaking possibilities for
drug delivery and diagnostics.
Nanoparticles can be engineered to deliver drugs directly to diseased cells, reducing side effects and improving efficacy. Moreover,
nanosensors can detect biomarkers at very low concentrations, enabling early diagnosis of diseases like cancer.
