Research Trends in Nanotechnology with Microbes in Nepal

Abstract

Nanotechnology is an emerging field of modern science. It is a multi-disciplinary approach involving engineering, medicine, biology, chemistry, and physics. This involves the researchers from different fields which results in the rapid growth of this technology and exploring its application. The biological approach of synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) and its antimicrobial property opened the door for researchers to deal with microbes. In this article, we have reviewed the research trends in nanotechnology involving microbes in Nepal. In Nepal, synthesis of NPs and dealing with microorganisms dates back only a decade ago and many research were carried out and ongoing in this field in search of its proper application.
