Nanotechnology involves manipulating materials at the nanoscale and has many applications in medicine. It can be used to more precisely deliver drugs to specific locations in the body using nanobots or nanoparticles, helping improve treatment effectiveness and reduce side effects. Disease diagnosis and prevention may also be enhanced through tools like quantum dots that can identify cancer cells and nanobots that remove fat deposits or "cook" tumors. However, there are also environmental and health risks like nanoparticles potentially damaging lungs or organs if inhaled or entering the bloodstream that require further research. Overall, while still developing, nanomedicine shows promise for new cures and saving lives if risks are adequately addressed.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as âdistorted thinkingâ.

NANO TECHNOLOGY : APPLICATIONS IN
MEDICINE AND POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS
INTRODUCTION
Nanotechnology is the study, design, creation, synthesis,
manipulation, and application of materials, devices, and systems at the
nanometer scale (One meter consists of 1 billion nanometers). It is
2. becoming increasingly important in fields like engineering, agriculture,
construction, microelectronics and health care to mention a few. The
application of nanotechnology in the field of health care has come under
great attention in recent times. There are many treatments today that
take a lot of time and are also very expensive. Using nanotechnology,
quicker and much cheaper treatments can be developed. By performing
further research on this technology, cures can be found for diseases that
have no cure today. We could make surgical instruments of such
precision and deftness that they could operate on the cells and even
molecules from which we are made - something well beyond today's
medical technology. Therefore nanotechnology can help save the lives of
many people.
WHAT IS NANOTECHNOLOGY?
This section discusses the advantages of nanotechnology,
differentassembly approaches and applicationsin variousfields.
A. Advantages of using Nanotechnology
All manufactured products are made from molecules. The
properties of these products depends on how molecules are arranged.
For exampleif we arrangemolecules in coal we get diamonds.
Figure 1. All products are made individual molecules
3. Nanotechnology is the science and engineering involved at
the nanometer scale (molecular level). At this scale we consider
individual molecules and interaction between those molecules.
Therefore nanotechnology can be used to achieve positional control with
a high degree of specificity. Thus our products can have the desired
physical and chemical properties. This is the greatest advantage of
using nanotechnology and brings mankind one step closer towards
perfection.
B. Assembly approaches
There are two main approaches for the synthesis of nano-
engineered materials. They can be classified on the basis of how
moleculesare assembled to achieve the desired product.
1. Topâ down technique
The top â down technique begins with taking a macroscopic
material (the finished product) and then incorporating smaller scale
details into them. The molecules are rearranged to get the desired
property. This approach is still not viable as many of the devices used to
operate at nano level are still being developed.
2. Bottom â up approach
The bottom â up approach begins by designing and
synthesizing custom made molecules that have the ability to self-
replicate. These molecules are then organized into higher macro-scale
structures. The molecules self replicate upon the change in specific
physical or chemical property that triggers the self replication. This can
be a change in temperature, pressure, application of electricity or a
4. chemical. The self replication of molecule has to be carefully controlled
so it doesnot go out of hand.
C. Applications in various fields
Nanotechnology should let us make almost every
manufactured product faster, lighter, stronger, smarter, safer and
cleaner. The following are some areas in which nanotechnology can
have tremendousconsequences.
⢠Transportation
⢠Atomic Computers
⢠Military Applications
⢠Solar cells
APPLICATION IN MEDICALSCIENCE
This section discusses the applications of nanotechnology in the
field of health care. These applications can remarkably improve the
currenttreatments of somediseases and help savethe lives of many.
A. Drug Delivery System
1.Nanobots
Nanobots are robots that carry out a very specific function and are
just several nanometers wide. They can be used very effectively for drug
delivery. Normally, drugs work through the entire body before they
reach the disease-affected area. Using nanotechnology, the drug can be
targeted to a precise location which would make the drug much more
effective and reduce the chances of possible side-effects. Figure 1 below
shows a device that uses nanobots to monitor the sugar level in the
blood.
5. Figure 2. Device Using Nanobots for Checking Blood Contents
2. Drug delivery procedure
The drug carriers have walls that are just 5-10 atoms thick
and the inner drug-filled cell is usually 50-100 nanometers wide. When
they detect signs of the disease, thin wires in their walls emit an
electrical pulse which causes the walls to dissolve and the drug to be
released
3. Advantages ofusing nanobots for drug delivery
A great advantage of using nanobots for drug delivery is that the
amount and time of drug release can be easily controlled by controlling
the electrical pulse . Furthermore, the walls dissolve easily and are
therefore harmless to the body.
B.Disease Diagnosis and Prevention
1. Quantum dots
Quantum dotsare nanomaterials that glow very brightly when
illuminated by ultravioletlight. They can be coated with a material that
makes the dotsattach specifically to the moleculethey wantto track.
Quantum dotsbind themselves to proteinsuniqueto cancer cells,
literally bringing tumorsto light.
6. Figure 3. A LIGHTIN DARK PLACES: Spectral imaging of quantum dots.
Orange-red fluorescence signals indicate a prostate tumor growing in a
live mouse
7. 2 .Preventing diseases
a. heart-attack prevention
Nanobots can also be used to prevent heart-attacks. Heart-
attacks are caused by fat deposits blocking the blood vessels. Nanobots
can be made for removingthese fat deposits.
b. frying tumors
Nanomaterials have also been investigated into treating
cancer. The therapy is based on âcooking tumorsâ principle. Iron
nanoparticles are taken as oral pills and they attach to the tumor. Then a
magnetic field is applied and this causes the nanoparticles to heat up
and literally cook the tumorsfrom insideout.
c. Medical Tools
Nano-devices are nanoparticles that are created for the
purpose of interacting with cells and tissues and carrying out very
specific tasks. The most famous nano-devices are the imaging tools. Oral
pills can be taken that contain miniature cameras. These cameras can
reach deep parts of the body and provide high resolution pictures of
cells as small as 1 micron in width (A red blood cell is 7 microns wide).
This makes them very useful for diagnosis and also during operations.
Figure 4 below shows such cameras working with other nanoparticles
to get rid of a disease.
8. Figure 4. Miniature Cameras Inside Blood Vessels
An accelerometer is a very useful nano-device that can be
attached to the hip, knee or other joint bones to monitor movements
and strain levels. Dressings can be coated with silver nanoparticles to
make them infection-resistant. The nanoparticles kill bacteria and
therefore reducechances of infection.
PROBLEMS WITH USINGNANOTECHNOLOGY
Nanotechnology is a potentially limitless collection of
technologies and associated materials.
A. Environmental Problems
The greatest risk to the environment lies in the rapid expansion
and development of nanoparticles using large scale production. A
recent study showed that certain nanoparticles have a tendency to
form aggregates that are very water soluble and bacteriocidal(capable
of killing bacteria) and that can be catastrophic as bacteria are the
foundation of the ecosystem .
9. B. HealthProblems
The risk of nanoparticles to the health of human beings is of far
greater concern. Nanoparticles are likely to make contact with the
body via the lungs, intestines and skin.
1. Risk to Lungs
Nanoparticles are very light and can easily become
airborne. They can easily be inhaled during the manufacturing
process where dust clouds are a common occurrence. Particles
passing into the walls of air passage can worsen existing air disease
such as asthma and bronchitis and can be fatal
The following illustration shows how nanoparticles can
be inhaled and travel throughout the body.
Figure 5. Tracing how nanoparticles can be inhaled and travel to the
brain, lungs and the bloodstream
10. 2. Effects on Brain
Some nanoparticles that are inhaled through the nose can
move upward into the base of the brain. This may damage the brain and
the nervoussystem and could be fatal.
3. Problems inBlood
Nanoparticles flowing thorough the bloodstream may affect
the clotting system which may result in a heart-attack. If these
nanoparticles travel to organs like the heart or the liver, they may affect
the functionality of these organs
11. CONCLUSION
Nanotechnology is still in its early stages. The applications
discussed is already been developed and are already helping patients
all over the world. As further research continues in this field, more
treatments will be discovered. Many diseases that do not have cures
today may be cured by nanotechnology in the future. Some of the
concerns were also discussed but with proper care these problems can
be avoided. Scientists who are against the use of nanotechnology also
agree that advancement in nanotechnology should continue because
this field promises great benefits, but testing should be carried out to
ensure the safety of the people. If everything runs smoothly,
nanotechnology will one day become part of our everyday life and will
help save many lives.
