Nanotechnology Applications in Biomedical Systems

Abstract

Today’s nanotechnology progress in biomedical and biotechnology is to design novel materials with exclusive properties of nanoscale structures. The application of nano-structured materials into biomedical systems has received much attention due to its remarkable resolution in assisting diagnoses and treating medical difficulties. The variety of nanostructured materials produced could be easily controlled and manipulated. Moreover, they could be designed to provide a new property in a predictable manner, whereby the modified biological characteristic and functionalities are compatible with biomedical systems for various applications and purposes. All-inclusive, nanotechnology has an enormous impact on health care and undeniably shaping the future pathway. This paper reviews research methods in nanotechnology developments, which convey benefits to the biomedical application on nano-network and communication, biosensor, nanoprobe, drug delivery system and nano implants.
