ABSTRACT
Nanoscience is a new burgeoning technology in diverse regimes of life sciences. Nanomedicines or nanobiopharmaceuticals (antimicrobial and antibiofilm agents), environmental system (e.g., water purification systems), food industries (for better food productions), fuel cells, solar cells, fuels, sporting goods, privacy and security (nanoelectronics), textile (fabric), etc. are myriad applications that emphasize potentials of nanobiotechnology in distinct sector. Nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized with highly studied metals and metal salts such as copper, cadmium, palladium, silver, platinum, gold, zinc oxide, cadmium sulfide, and titanium oxide by biological (bacteria, fungi, algae, plant) as well as by chemical method. From the last few decades, nanobiotechnology has earned considerable attention; therefore, different nanomaterials have been accomplished and found useful in remediation processes for eliminating environmental pollution. The elimination of these noxious pollutants from contaminated sites is a need of an hour to forbid the negative impact on human health and the natural habitat. Due to the exclusive properties of nanomaterials like magnetic, antimicrobial, anticancer catalytic activity, and optical properties, these metal NPs have been explored extensively. Their large surface-area-to-volume ratio is the most important property, which increases their interaction with other molecules. In recent 242years, nanobiotechnology has become an emergent technology due to their remarkable and fascinating properties.
