Abstract
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has led to a worldwide demand for efficacious identification and medication as well as preventing the spread of infection. Based on an abundance of engineered materials recognizable through their useful physicochemical properties, nanotechnology provides a number of perspectives to tackle with this pandemic disease. Nanotechnology can aid to fight against COVID-19, infectious diseases in general, as well as future pandemics. It works on nano scale level ranging from 0 to 100 nanometers. Nanoparticles are small in size but they have greater surface area in comparison to large sized molecules which increase its efficiency. The technology has potential to manipulate the molecules in our desired nature. Nanoparticles are used in almost every area for human welfare. It can be also be a useful tool for the treatment of COVID-19 outbreak like development of rapid detection kits for the testing of COVID-19 infection. Nano biotechnology may also be helpful to cure many other chronic diseases, in development of improved personal protective equipment including facemasks, effective vaccines and targeted drug delivery systems. Summarily, nanotechnology can be crucial in preventing COVID-19 and future pandemics.
