What biological applications are there in Nanotechnology?
Biology intersects with nanotechnology primarily in the field of nanomedicine. Nanoparticles are being designed for targeted drug delivery, where they can deliver therapeutic agents directly to diseased cells, minimizing side effects. Additionally, biosensors that use nanomaterials can detect biological markers at extremely low concentrations, improving the early diagnosis of diseases. The study of nanotoxicology is also crucial to understand the safety and environmental impact of nanomaterials.
