Question

Five applications of nanotechnology in the field of medical science

Answer 1

One very important application of nanoscience in medicine is to deliver necessary chemicals (drugs) to specific cells in the body. 

Second, nanotechnology can be used for quick and effective diagnosis techniques. 

Third, nanoparticles can be delivered to wounded organs to treat them. For instance, a bunch of nanoparticles can be delivered to a bleeding organ to reduce the loss of blood.

Fourth, nanoscience can be used to “fix” or repair specific cells in the organism.

Fifth, nanoparticles can be designed to work as a part of the immune system and protect our body from viruses.
