Abstract

Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising field with vast implications across numerous industries, including medicine. The ability to manipulate matter at the nanoscale has opened up new possibilities for targeted drug delivery, disease diagnosis, and medical imaging. One particular area of study within nanotechnology is the use of nanoparticles in the human body. When the size of particles between 1-100 nanometers are known as nanoparticles. They differ from their bulk counterparts in terms of their characteristics and behaviors. This is due to their high surface-to-volume ratio and quantum confinement effects. In this article we examine the latest research on nanoparticles in the human body, highlighting their potential applications, as well as concerns and challenges associated with their use. Nanoparticles have shown great promise in different biomedical uses such as the delivery of drugs, biosensors and imaging agents. They ideal candidates for targeted drug delivery, as they can accumulate at specific sites in the body and release therapeutic agents in a controlled manner.
