Nanobiotechnology
Category: Technology
Microbial tests are based essentially on time-consuming culture methods. However, newer enzymatic, immunological and genetic methods are being developed to replace and/or support classical approaches to microbial detection. Moreover, innovations in nanotechnology and nanosciences are having a significant impact in biodiagnostics, where a number of nanoparticle-based assays and nanodevices have been introduced for biomolecular detection.
Current and emerging molecular approaches for the detection of microbial pathogens especially in the area of nanobiotechnology will aid microbial diagnostics and pathogen detection.

Nanotechnology refers to the engineering and art of manipulating matter at the nanoscale (1-100 nm). This emerging technology has many applications applications including applications in microbiology and water treatment.
Nanotechnology offers the potential of novel nanomaterials (nanostructured catalytic membranes, nanosorbents, nanocatalysts and bioactive nanoparticles) for the treatment of surface water, groundwater and wastewater contaminated by toxic metal ions, organic and inorganic solutes and microorganisms. At the present time many nanomaterials are under active research and development for this purpose.
