Abstract

Among the various applications of nano-biotechnology, healthcare is considered one of the most significant domains. For that possibility to synthesize various kind of nanoparticles (NPs) and the ever-increasing ability to control their size as well as structure, to improve surface characteristics and binding NPs with other desired curing agents has played an important role. In this paper, a brief sketch of various kinds of nanomaterials and their biomedical applications is given. Despite claims of bio-nanotechnology about to touch all areas of medical science, information pertaining to the role of nanotechnology for the betterment of reproductive healthcare is indeed limited. Therefore, the various achievements of nano-biotechnology for healthcare in general have been illustrated while giving special insight into the role of nano-biotechnology for the future of reproductive healthcare betterment as well as current achievements of nanoscience and nanotechnology in this arena.

生命科学和纳米技术之间的新兴界面:纳米生物技术辅助生殖保健的现状和前景。

在纳米生物技术的各种应用中，医疗保健被认为是最重要的领域之一。由于合成各种纳米颗粒(NPs)的可能性和不断增强的控制其尺寸和结构的能力，改善纳米颗粒的表面特性和与其他所需固化剂的结合发挥了重要作用。本文简要介绍了各种纳米材料及其在生物医学上的应用。尽管声称生物纳米技术即将触及医学科学的所有领域，但有关纳米技术在改善生殖保健方面的作用的信息确实有限。因此，本文阐述了纳米生物技术在一般医疗保健方面的各种成就，同时特别介绍了纳米生物技术在未来改善生殖保健方面的作用，以及纳米科学和纳米技术在这一领域的当前成就。
