Role of NANOBOTS in microbiology
A microscopically small robot.”
This robot built on the scale of nanometer.
A nanometer is one billionth of a meter 0.000000001 or 10-9 meters.
“ One thousand nanometers equals one micron.”
In medical-
Diagnostic
Therapy
Surgery
They are tailored to deliver drugs to specific parts of the body (injecting them via IV route).
Repair damage cells and destroy targeted cancer cells in the body.
Role in future -
Used for stop aging.
“As per former google engineer, these are tiny robots will constantly keep fixing damaged cells and tissues that start to deteriorate as we age, making us immune to lethal diseases”.
Nanobots may collaborate with AI are threaten human civilization.
In medical-
Deliver medicine via nanorods directly to the spinal cord.
Fight with cancer cells or may repair.
By augmenting the cell’s natural repair machinery, Nanobots enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the repair process.
DNA damage is the common cause of cellular dysfunction and aging.
Cellular repair nanobots can deliver DNA repair enzymes, such as DNA polymerases and nucleases, to damaged cells.
They would offer a good way to treat neurological dysfunctions.
Pros-
Provide durability, as they could last for years.
The operation time would also be much lower because their displacements are smaller.
Can deliver drugs
Perform surgical procedures
Cons-
Expensive
Regulation
Maintenance
Some studies shown that some nanoparticles can accumulate in body and cause damage to organs and tissues.
Lack of control
Potential toxicity
