Nanovip All things Nanotechnology – Nano Is The Futiure

Nanotechnology, which is fast emerging as the future science promising thousand things including cures for complicated diseases, could prove to be toxic for human beings, animals and environment. Nanoparticles are extremely miniscule and this makes them potential agents of toxicity in humans during drug delivery. Their infinite smallness enables them to cross the cellular barriers in humans, animals and plants, ... Read More »

Existing technologies allow researchers to measure single molecules on the x and y axes of a 2-D plane. The new technology allows researchers to make height measurements (the z axis) down to the nanometer – just a billionth of a meter – without custom optics or special surfaces for the samples. “This is a completely new type of measurement that ...

Nanotechnology and Nanoscience is a relatively new field that started in 1959 where scientists started doing research on nano (small) particles. The prefix nano comes from the ancient Greek word for “dwarf”. Nanotechnology is about breaking materials into their smallest forms and seeing how one can improve the performanceof that particular object.(SABC) It is all about the creation, manipulation and ...
