What are the Applications of Targeting in Nanotechnology?
Targeting has a wide range of applications, including drug delivery, diagnostic imaging, and gene therapy. In drug delivery, targeted nanoparticles can carry chemotherapeutic agents directly to cancer cells. In diagnostic imaging, they can enhance the contrast of specific tissues, making it easier to detect abnormalities. In gene therapy, nanoparticles can deliver genetic material to specific cells to correct genetic disorders.
