The development of nanotechnology formulations involves several key steps:
Material Selection: Choosing the appropriate materials based on the desired properties and application. Synthesis: Employing techniques such as chemical vapor deposition, sol-gel processes, or electrospinning to create nanostructures. Characterization: Using tools like electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and spectroscopy to analyze the size, shape, and composition of the nanomaterials. Functionalization: Modifying the surface properties of nanomaterials to improve their interaction with biological systems or other environments. Testing: Conducting in vitro and in vivo studies to assess the safety, efficacy, and stability of the formulations.
