Abstract

Nanobiotechnology represents a dynamic convergence of nanotechnology and biological sciences, offering transformative solutions across medicine, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. By enabling precise manipulation of materials at the nanoscale, this field has revolutionized diagnostics, targeted drug delivery, tissue engineering, and biosensing. This paper explores the unique properties of nanomaterials—such as carbon nanotubes, gold nanoparticles, and quantum dots—and their functional integration with biological systems. It highlights cutting-edge innovations including cellular-level nanorobots, AI-enhanced smart nanomaterials, and personalized nanomedicine tailored to genetic profiles. The review also addresses emerging techniques like 3D nanoprinting and self-assembly, while examining broader applications in synthetic biology and environmental remediation. Finally, it underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, ethical oversight, and adaptive regulatory frameworks in guiding the responsible advancement of nanobiotechnology.
