Abstract
Nanobiotechnology is the combination of biotechnology and nanotechnology pertaining to life sciences. This discipline provides the tools constructed from nanotechnology to study biological systems. The development of nanoparticles or nanodevices serving as sensors for detection of minor changes, vehicles for drug delivery to the targeted sites inside the body, probes to investigate specific molecules, and molecular imaging techniques to diagnose the diseases in time. This is a quantitative analytical tool to determine cell functioning at molecular level. Physical models of cells performing as machines for understanding the therapeutic effects and better ex vivo laboratory techniques are the major areas of research in nanobiotechnology. In this chapter, DNA microarrays technology along with their applications, nanoparticle assemblies like protein and DNA, digital cells, genetic circuits, and DNA computing are discussed. Although these technologies are at their infancy stage, their current level depicts the glittering future that can serve humanity tremendously.
