Abstract
Nanobiotechnology is a new discipline that combines nanotechnology with biological sciences. It has changed the way science and technology work today. Changing materials on the nanoscale makes it possible to interact with biological systems in very specific ways. This opens up new opportunities in healthcare, agriculture, environmental management, and industry. This article talks about how nanobiotechnology has moved from the lab to the real world. Nanobiotechnology has led to tailored drug delivery systems, better diagnostic tools, and regenerative therapies in medicine. These things make treatment more effective and have fewer side effects. In farming, nano-based fertilisers and insecticides help crops grow better and stay safe. Nanomaterials can be used for environmental purposes like cleaning water, controlling pollution, and managing trash in a way that is good for the environment. Also, industrial processes benefit from new, more efficient technologies, cost less, and are better for the environment. Even if it has a lot of potential, there are problems, including toxicity, ethical concerns, and regulatory obstacles, that need to be solved before it can be used safely and responsibly. Nanobiotechnology is a very important step toward finding new and long-lasting ways to solve global problems. It connects scientific discovery with real- world use.
Keywords: drug delivery, biosensors, targeted therapy, environmental applications, and
sustainable technology.
