Nanotechnology and medicine



Nanotechnology involves the manipulation of the properties and structure of nano-scale, often related to aspects which constitute only a small fraction of the thickness of a human hair. Nanotechnology is already used in products in the form of passive, such as cosmetics and sunscreen products, and is expected in the coming decades, new stages of products, such as improving battery life and improved electronics will be developed and a comprehensive impact.

One of the areas of nanotechnology, which will contribute to the great benefit to society in the future in medicine. Nanotechnology is already being used as a basis for new, more effective drug delivery system and is in the early stage of development, such as studies of forests regenerating nerves. In addition, the National Cancer Institute created the Alliance for Nanotechnology in Cancer, in the hope that investment in nanomedicine could lead to a breakthrough in the detection, diagnosis and treatment of various cancers.

Medical nanotechnology over the next few years will have a wide range of applications and can save many lives. Nanotechnology is already used in the environmental movement from passive to active structures at the expense of more targeted drug therapies, or "smart drugs." These new drug therapies has been shown to cause fewer side effects and efficacy of traditional therapies. 

In the future, nanotechnology will also assist in the creation of molecular systems, which can be very similar to living systems. Molecular structures may give rise to the regeneration or replacement of body parts, which are now lost to infection, trauma or disease. future, these forecasts are of great importance not only to promote nanotechnology research and development, as well as to determine the control measures. the product is approved by the FDA and the verification process is to increase the time goes forward, and new medical applications of nanotechnology development.
