Introduction
The influx specifies us accompanying the facts on in what way or manner the nanotechnology has damaged the globe and effects on people. The more we are numbering to the future we are utilizing and constituting
benefits established nanotechnology. The use of nanomedicine has established different medicines for uncured treatments. Nanomedicine, refers to very specific medical invasion at the molecular level for curing affliction or
repairing damaged tissues. Modern nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary science concerning the tiniest of particles and their special chemical, physical and mechanical properties at the meeting points of physics, chemistry,
biology, medicine, electronics, and information technology. In practice the special areas of nanotechnology overlap and blur the boundaries between the natural sciences. Nanobiotechnology is concerned with molecular
intra- and intercellular processes and is of critical importance for nanotechnology applications in medicine. This manifests itself in the diverse interplay between medically relevant nanotechnologies and possible
nanobiotechnology applications in human medicine. The expectations of the diagnostic, therapeutic and regenerative possibilities of nanomedicine are immense. They are directed at inexpensive rapid tests for genetic
predisposition, viral infection and the first signs of diseases long before symptoms manifest themselves, at medicines and vaccines without side effects, at treatment of cancer, cardiovascular diseases and neurological
diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, at establishing long-lasting, well-tolerated organ implants, at targeted control of cell and tissue growth and at stimulation of neuronal activities. The nanomedicine
vision of the future is early detection of pathological changes at the molecular level by means of unambiguous imaging methods and minimally invasive treatment of the patient with individually tailor-made medicines as
soon as the disease is in the development stage.
History of nanotechnology
Nanomedicine is a young science. How nanotechnology can be of use to medicine, medical technology and pharmacology has only been researched since the 1990s. Nanotechnology itself has only existed for a few decades.
After the invention of high-resolution microscopy, it evolved simultaneously in biology, physics and chemistry in the course of the 20th century and spawned new disciplines such as microelectronics, biochemistry and
molecular biology. For nanomedicine, nanobiotechnology knowledge which investigates the structure and function of cells as well as intra- and intercellular processes and cell communication is of prime importance. This
research only became possible at the beginning of the 20th century when the door to the nano cosmos was burst open with the invention of innovative microscopes. Nano porous ceramic filters were indeed already being
used in the 19th century to separate viruses, and around 1900 Max Planck and Albert Einstein produced theoretical evidence that there must be a range of tiny particles which obeyed their own laws. These particles could not
be made visible however-the necessary instruments for this in 1902 structures smaller than 4 nanometers were successfully detected in ruby glasses using the ultramicroscope developed by Richard Zsigmondy and Henry
Siedentop. In 1912 Zsigmondy applied for a patent for the immersion ultramicroscope, with which it became possible to investigate the behavior of colloidal solutions. From 1931 onwards significantly better resolutions
were achieved with the transmission electron microscope (TEM) developed by Max Knoll and Ernst Ruska than with the light microscopes conventionally used up until then . Insight into the atomic range, however, first
became Figure 1: Importance of nanobiotechnology in medicine. possible with the field electron microscope developed by Erwin Müller in 1936 and its further development to the field ion microscope (FIM), with
which in 1951 physicists were able to see individual atoms and their arrangement on a surface. The use of the innovative microscopes in chemistry and biology led to the discovery of cell structures and cell constituents.
With the aid of further inventions, such as the voltage clamp (a precursor of the patch clamp technique), understanding of the structure and function of the cell membrane, diffusion processes and systematic cell
communication by means of receptors and antibodies according to fixed rules became ever better in the following decades. The mechanisms of maintaining and regulating metabolism, the role of enzymes and proteins and
the functioning of the immune system was also researched, and effective vaccines developed. The description and understanding of DNA and RNA in the 1950s and 1960s [5,6] led to the concept of genetic diseases and to
the vision of cures at the molecular level tailor-made for patients.
Conclusion
Nanotechnology and nanobiotechnology applications will change medicine greatly in the coming decades. Early detection of diseases in the molecular stage of development by simple and inexpensive rapid tests and highly
accurate imaging methods, optimization of existing and introduction of new, minimally invasive treatment methods for hitherto incurable diseases, development of tailor-made medicines free from side effects, close
intermeshing of diagnosis and therapy, culture of bone, tissue and organs with the aid of nanomaterials and adult stem cells will improve healing prospects and the quality of life for the patient and significantly reduce
treatment and after-care costs. However, the new prospects opened up by nanomedicine are also associated with risks and social and ethical questions which should not be ignored. Finally there is the matter of
sharing: When simple and inexpensive diagnosis and therapy are possible, will everyone then benefit from nanomedicine.
