Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine

Nanotechnology is being used in developing countries to treat diseases and prevent many health issues. The umbrella term for this kind of nanotechnology is Nanomedicine. Nanotechnology is either applied to or for developing the application to a vast range of industrial and purification processes. Nano medicine is the nanotechnology applications in a healthcare sector and the majority of benefits that have already been seen involve the use of nanoparticles to improve the drug substances behaviour and in drug delivery.  The Initiative of National Nanotechnology expects new applications on commercial basis in the pharmaceutical industry that may include new therapies, advanced delivery systems, and in vivo imaging.
