Nanobiotechnology is an emerging field in healthcare which encompasses the applications of two fields - nanotechnology and biotechnology - in the field of healthcare and medicine. Nanotechnology is poised to become the largest competitive space in the industry with applications in several areas within the industry. Nanobiotechnology is the key to develop tools to analyze the smallest biological sample possible, which is a single molecule. This is expected to present many opportunities and expand capabilities in areas such as forensic diagnostics and forensic science. In the recent years nanotechnology has definitely moved from the drawing board and into the field with many applications in pharmaceuticals (such as drug delivery and drug discovery), agriculture, diagnostics, therapeutics, in various devices, and in robotics.
