Abstract:

 Bionanotechnology has probably been the most developing field in the last decade as an integration of biotechnology onthe molecular level and nanotechnology. It provided new avenues of research and development to produce novel and newnanomaterials of medicinal applications which paved the way to the vibrant field of nanomedicine. This is dependent oncombining biological norms with unique characteristics of nano-sized particles to carry out very specific functions. Thiswill hopefully lead to the elucidation of our understanding of disease therapy and the biology of different life forms. Theprospects of using nanoparticles in such fields would include drug and gene therapy, tumor control, detection of pathogensand proteins, tissue and cell engineering, DNA probing, pest control in agricultural fields and many other applications.Knowing the expected implications of novel nanoparticles applications in nanoparticle based medicine and research, itbecame important to compile literature relevant to this subject in a single publication. Thus, this mini review was aimed tobe a contribution to this emerging volatile area of bionanotechnology, where efforts are being exerted to apply basicscientific ideas in clinical practice.
