Abstract
Nanotechnology has emerged as a revolutionary field with the potential to transform various aspects of science and technology. Nanomaterials, defined as materials with at least one dimension in the nanometer range (typically 1-100 nanometers), exhibit properties distinct from their bulk counterparts. Their large surface area with their unique properties arising from their nanoscale dimensions, quantum effects, and tunable behavior make them invaluable tools in biomedicine. These materials offer exciting opportunities for diagnostics, drug delivery, tissue engineering, and more. In this chapter, we delve into comprehensive analysis of various synthesis techniques and highlights the various innovative applications of nanomaterials in biomedicine, emphasizing their potential impact on advancing research and healthcare.
