Nanobiotechnology, bionanotechnology and nanobiology are terms that refer to the intersection of nanotechnology and biology. Since the subject is one that has only recently emerged, bionanotechnology and nanobiotechnology serve as general terms for several related technologies.
This discipline helps indicate the fusion of biological research with various fields of nanotechnology. Concepts that are improved through nanobiology include: nanodevices (such as biological machines), nanoparticles, and nanoscale phenomena that occur within the discipline of nanotechnology. This technical approach to biology allows scientists to imagine and create systems that can be used for biological research. Biotech-inspired nanotechnology uses biological systems as inspiration for technologies not yet created. However, as with nanotechnology and biotechnology, bionanotechnology has many potential ethical problems associated with it.
The most important goals that are often found in nanobiology include the application of nanotools to relevant medical / biological problems and the refining of these applications. The development of new tools, such as nanoheets of peptoids, for medical and biological purposes is another primary objective of nanotechnology. New nanotools are often made by refining the applications of nanotools that are already being used. The image of native biomolecules, biological membranes and tissues is also an important topic for nanobiology researchers. Other topics related to nanobiology include the use of cantilevered arcs sensors and the application of nanophotonics to manipulate molecular processes in living cells.
Recently, the use of microorganisms to synthesize functional nanoparticles has been of great interest. Microorganisms can change the oxidation state of metals. These microbial processes have opened up new opportunities to explore new applications, for example the biosynthesis of metallic nanomaterials. In contrast to chemical and physical methods, microbial processes for synthesizing nanomaterials can be achieved in aqueous phase under mild and environmentally benign conditions. This approach has become an attractive focus on current green biotechnology research towards sustainable development.
