variety of products‚ including sporting goods‚ cosmetics and electronics. The fact that unusual physical‚ chemical‚ and biological properties can emerge in materials at the nanoscale makes them particularly appealing for medicine. Scientists hope nanoparticles will be able to improve the effect of drugs and gene therapy by carrying them to the right place in the body and by targeting specific tissues‚ regulating the release of drugs and reducing damage to healthy tissues. They also envision the possibility

VP28dsRNA–chitosan complex nanoparticles. The treated shrimp were orally challenged with WSSV by feeding WSSV-infected tissue. The experiment was conducted for 30 days. The dsRNA-treated shrimp challenged with WSSV showed higher survival compared to control shrimp. Sixtyeight percent survival was observed in shrimp fed with feed coated with inactivated bacteria containing dsRNA of the WSSV VP28 gene whereas 37% survival was observed in shrimp fed with VP28dsRNA–chitosan complex nanoparticle–coated feed.

This new branch of health care is called nanomedicine and it’s developing at a rapid rate. There are countless applications of nanomedicine that are currently being created by researchers. According to Boysen (2007) and Sandle (2014) the use of nanoparticles to deliver drugs directly to disease or injury. This would allow doctors to treat diseases such as cancer directly and more effectively. Not only would using nanotechnology as a way

result‚ Maher believes it is “highly improbable” that the particles’ presence in the brain is harmless. “The levels of magnetite they found in the brain are much higher than have been found in other studies‚” says Jon Dobson‚ who studies magnetic nanoparticles in biomedicine at the University of Florida and was not involved in the study. There is a chance the high levels were from accidental contamination in the lab‚ in spite of the researchers’ careful steps to avoid it‚ he says. But if the high levels

Similarity solution; Stretching sheet; Constant wall temperature : The objective of the present study is to analyze the development of the slip effects on the boundary layer flow and heat transfer over a stretching surface in the presence of nanoparticle fractions. In the modeling of nanofluid the dynamic effects including the Brownian motion and thermophoresis are taken into account. In the case of constant wall temperature a similarity solution is presented. The solution depends on a Prandtl
