Nanotechnology in Biology

Nanotechnology is an empowering technology that deals with Nano-meter sized objects. It is supposed that nanotechnology will be produced at several levels: materials, devices and systems. The combination of biology and nanotechnology has led to a new generation of  Nanodevices that opens the possibility to characterize the chemical, physical, mechanical, and other molecular properties. And it can be even employed to distinguish the particular molecules or cells at exceptionally high throughput.  Nanoparticles with unique chemical compositions, sizes, shapes, and surface chemistries can be engineered simply and this method has a wide range of applications in biological systems. The benefit of nanotechnology to biomedical sciences refers to the production of materials and devices created for interaction in sub-cellular scales with a large degree of specificity.
