Nanotechnology: Design for the Future of Drug Delivery
Drug Delivery with Nanotechnology: Nanotechnology has completed his fifty years on December 29, 2009. Professor Richard P.Feynman (Nobel Laureate, 1965) was the first person to predict and discussed the concept of nanotechnology. His prediction, to a large extent, has been realized till today. He on December 29, 1959 at an American Physical Society meeting at Caltech presented a celebrated talk ‘There’s plenty of room at the bottom,’ which represents the era of nanotechnology — the technology catering only nanometre scaled objects. The term Nanotechnology came into existence in the year 1974, by the help of Professor Norio Taniguchi. Feynman research and development activity was pointing towards a new era of technology by aggregating things atom by atom, at present terms, ‘molecular nanotechnology’. He also discussed about writing the entire Encyclopaedia Britannica on the tip of a needle; also forecasted that one day the entire information of the world could be contained in an ...
