Nanotechnology: A Revolution in Modern Industry

Abstract

Nanotechnology, contrary to its name, has massively revolutionized industries around the world. This paper predominantly deals with data regarding the applications of nanotechnology in the modernization of several industries. A comprehensive research strategy is adopted to incorporate the latest data driven from major science platforms. Resultantly, a broad-spectrum overview is presented which comprises the diverse applications of nanotechnology in modern industries. This study reveals that nanotechnology is not limited to research labs or small-scale manufacturing units of nanomedicine, but instead has taken a major share in different industries. Companies around the world are now trying to make their innovations more efficient in terms of structuring, working, and designing outlook and productivity by taking advantage of nanotechnology. From small-scale manufacturing and processing units such as those in agriculture, food, and medicine industries to larger-scale production units such as those operating in industries of automobiles, civil engineering, and environmental management, nanotechnology has manifested the modernization of almost every industrial domain on a global scale. With pronounced cooperation among researchers, industrialists, scientists, technologists, environmentalists, and educationists, the more sustainable development of nano-based industries can be predicted in the future.

Recent Developments in Mpox Prevention and Treatment Options

“…The best feature of this antiviral agent is that it decreases the symptomology to avert lesions formation and reduces mortality rates. It is used as a second-line therapy for severe vaccinia [ 82 , 99 ]. Specifically, in the case of mpox, the trials have demonstrated reversed mpox by inhibiting mpox replication (proven in vitro and in vivo experiments) [ 65 ].…”

“…It is preferred for rapid and widespread administration in cases of emergency outbreaks. Unlike cidofovir, it has good oral bioavailability and no reported nephrotoxicity; therefore, it is approved for oral administration [ 82 , 83 , 99 ]. However, the liver enzymatic profile must be carefully regulated, and functional tests must be conducted for the application.…”

“…Important drug targets and biobased markers tested in different studies are part of Table 3 . Most of these biomarkers have been proposed while keeping in consideration the genomic similarities between smallpox and mpox, which sets a trace route for future therapies [ 38 , 48 , 65 , 80 , 82 , 95 , 96 , 99 ].…”

“…Specific studies of AGNPs against mpox have exhibited their dose-dependent inhibitory effect. However, more studies are needed to prove the research implication in clinical models [ 3 , 48 , 65 , 95 , 99 ].…”

Therapeutic Applications of Biogenic Silver Nanomaterial Synthesized from the Paper Flower of Bougainvillea glabra (Miami, Pink)

“…Biotechnologically or environmentally produced nanoparticles have several desirable properties, including high stability and size. Many different methods, including chemical, physical, and biological processes, can be used to generate nanoparticles [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]. There is a risk to human and environmental health from the employment of chemicals and physical procedures due to the high levels of radiation, highly specific reductants, and potentially hazardous agents.…”
