Nanotechnology and Nano Medicine

Nanomaterials are defined as materials composed of unbound particles or as particles in an aggregate or agglomerate state with one or more external dimensions with a size ranging from 1 to 100nm. Nanomaterials are chemical substances or materials that are manufactured and used at a very small scale. Nanomaterial’s are developed to exhibit novel characteristics compared to the same material without nanoscale features, such as increased strength, chemical reactivity or conductivity.
