...TITLE : Nano material as biological sensors or nano in medical therapy or nano in medical use CONTENT LIST CONTENTS PAGE NO. ABSTRACT 2 INTRODUCTION 2 CURRENT STATUS 3 DISCUSSION 3 FURTHER DIRECTION 16 CONCLUSION 16 REFERENCES 17 ABSTRACT The recent developments in the Nano scale systems promise to be a harbinger for scientific and technological advancements initiating a fundamental understanding and quest of novel physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of systems in nano material dimensions. The latest architectures in nanostructures and nano systems are representative of improved functionalities. The nano structured materials have future applications for chem.-bio sensors, medical therapies and potential applications in security and environment safety. (Merkle, R.C.1993) INTRODUCTION The intentional or unintentional contamination of the environment, food items and the agricultural products has been increased due to certain local and global threats of poisonous gases and terrorism. This situation makes the decentralized sensing a core issue for several international bodies. A nanotechnology based sensor platform makes the direct electrical detection of biological and chemical agents possible in a highly multiplexed format over a vast dynamic range during clinical testing. Nucleic acid layers can be combined with nanomaterials-based electrochemical which produce affinity biosensors such as the “DNA Biosensor”...
