Types of nanotechnology

Image
  Nanotechnology is part of the new generation of innovation, sometimes called the “new industrial revolution”. The science and technology behind it will help transform various sectors, including aerospace, energy, information technology, medicine, national defence, and transportation. In this post, we talk with Dr. Mariana Arce, professor in the Degree in Physics, about the types of nanotechnology, the development of nanotechnology and its future. What is nanotechnology? Nanotechnology is a concept used to define the sciences and techniques that are applied at the nanoscale level (from 1 to 100 nanometers). The idea of nanoscience was born in the last century by the physicist Richard Feynman, who spoke of nanotechnology as the process of being able to individually manipulate and control atoms and molecules. The term nanotechnology was used for the first time in 1974 by the Japanese Norio Taniguchi. The improvement of new adequate techniques to work in the appropriate size such as ...

Applying Nanomedicine to Empower Humanity

Image
  How is nanotechnology currently used in medicine? Several coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines utilized nanoscale liposomes in the delivery of mRNA instructing for the production of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein with great success, protecting the sensitive nucleic acids from degradation during circulation and allowing direct translation across the cell membrane into the cytoplasm of cells throughout the body.  While the mRNA vaccine component of the COVID-19 vaccines was relatively novel, liposomes have been used for drug and diagnostic agent delivery in patients for multiple decades, the first liposomal formula FDA approved in 1995 for the delivery of chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin.  Encapsulation of this highly toxic drug within liposomes extends circulation time and reduces side effects, promoting biocompatibility and safety, and liposomes have therefore since been adapted to various roles in nanomedicine, over a do...

NANOMEDICINE SIMPLIFIED: HOW IT WORKS, USES, BENEFITS, SAFETY

Image
  Nanomedicine is an emerging and prospectively revolutionary field in healthcare that combines nanotechnology and medicine. It involves the use of tiny materials, or nanoparticles, to diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases at the molecular level. This cutting-edge technology can potentially transform healthcare, from early diagnosis to targeted therapy. In this article, we will explore what nanomedicine is, how it works, as well as its potential benefits and controversies in the field of healthcare. What is Nanomedicine? Nanomedicine involves the application of nanotechnology in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. It involves the use of nanoscale materials to interact with the human body at the molecular level. These are typically between 1 and 100 nanometers in size. [1] How Does Nanomedicine Work? Nanomedicine works by using nanoparticles. Nanoparticles are particles of a very small size made of various materials such as metals, polymers, or lipids. Nanopar...

Nanotech Glow: The Future of Skincare #Sciencefather #SrDoping #NanotechFuture #scientist

Barium ferrite (BaFe₁₂O₁₉) is a well-known magnetic material used in data storage, sensors, and microwave devices. But what happens when you dope it with strontium (Sr) and cobalt (Co)? The result is a supercharged nanoparticle with enhanced structural, magnetic, and electronic properties.  International Research Awards on Advanced Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology   Nomination Link: nanotechnology-conferences.sciencefather.com/award-nomination/?ecategory=Awards&rcategory=Awardee   Visit Our Website nanotech.sciencefather.com   Contact Us : nanotech@sciencefather.com   Stay Connected Here:   Pinterest: in.pinterest.com/nanotechnology456/   Youtube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCx0X3aP_F9CWwh8LLaEcg0w   Blogger: nanotechconferences2022.blogspot.com/   Whatsapp Channel: whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb3eR804tRrzf3Za5x3p   #Sciencefather #researchawards #ProfessorLecturer #scientist #BariumFerrite #DopedNanoparticles #MagneticNanomateri...
