A Brief Review on Convergence of Diversifying Fields of Nanotechnology and Bioinformatics as an Advanced Revolutionized Device for Betterment of Humankind
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharma Research and Health Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Nanotechnology has grown from an attractive idea to what is called a breakthrough advances technology in science World. The ability to precisely control and to build molecules at extremely small length scales coined as term, nanoscales which holds the promise for unprecedented achievements in healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, energy and national security. In the recent years, it has diversified into different fields and sciences giving rise to tremendous developments and advancements with endless scope used for betterment of earth and humankind. Hence, this review discusses the different areas of this advanced scientific development which emerges as nanobiotechnology, nanorobotics, green nanotechnology and nanoscience. Especially, this review highlights the role of bioinformatics in nanotechnology as nano-informatics and the creation of what is called a nanolibrary which exactly, represents the application of the scientific blend of two advanced technologies as their convergence with their future role in revolution for betterment of mankind too with their applications in therapeutics, nutraceutics and pharmaceutics.
