Nanomedicine is an area of science that employs particles at the nanoscale range to be used as a treatment in case of various ailments. The major benefit of nanomaterials involves their ability to deliver drug molecules to their specific site of action & facilitate the controlled release of drugs. In this, most nanoparticles ranging from 1nm to 100nm are used, as they possess properties that are not available in bulk materials. The most significant of them include their higher reactivity & ability to pass through membranes, which play a key role in improving therapeutic activities.
