Track 1: Nanomedicine

The term Nano medicine encompasses a broad range of technologies and materials. Types of nanomaterials that have been investigated for use as drugs,, drug carriers or other Nonmedical agents. There has been steep growth in development of devices that integrate nanomaterials or other nanotechnology. The nanotechnology-based medical devices market is categorized into three major segments, namely, therapeutic applications, diagnostics applications, and research applications. Rising incidence of lifestyle and age-related disorders (such as cardiovascular and hearing disorders) has contributed significantly to the growth of the nanotechnology-based active implantable devices market. Nanotechnology, or systems/device manufacture at the molecular level, is a multidisciplinary scientific field undergoing explosive development. The genesis of nanotechnology can be traced to the promise of revolutionary advances across medicine, communications and genomics. On the surface, miniaturization provides cost effective and more rapidly functioning biological components. Less obvious though is the fact that Nanometer sized objects also possess remarkable self-ordering and assembly behaviors under the control of forces quite different from macro objects.

Track 2: Nanorobots in Medicine  

Advances in technology have increased our ability to manipulate the world around us . Nanotechnology is rapidly emerging within the realm of medicine.

Track 3: Nanoparticles in Photodynamic Therapy

The therapeutic properties of light have been known for thousands of years, but it was only in the last century that photodynamic therapy (PDT) was developed. It is an emerging modality for the treatment of a variety of diseases that require the killing of pathological cells (e.g. cancer cells or infectious micro-organisms) or the removal of unwanted tissue (e.g. neovascularization in the choroid or atherosclerotic plaques in the arteries). It is based on the excitation of nontoxic photosensitizers. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses the combination of dyes with visible light to produce reactive oxygen species and kill bacteria and destroy unwanted tissue. Nanotechnology plays a great role in solubilizing the photosensitizers, metal nanoparticles can carry out Plasmon resonance enhancement, and fullerenes can act as photosensitizers, themselves.

Track 4: Importance of Nanotechnology in Biosensors

Nanotechnology is becoming increasingly important for the several sectors. Promising results and applications are already being developed in the areas of nutrient delivery systems through bioactive Nano encapsulation, biosensors to detect and quantify pathogens organic compounds. The sensitivity and performance of biosensors is being improved by using nanomaterials for their construction. The use of these nanomaterials has allowed the introduction of many new signal transduction technologies in biosensors. Many scientists have involved themselves to know the application and the benefits of nanotechnology in different areas of food industry that include bioactive Nano encapsulation, edible thin film, packages and Nano sensors.

Track 5: Green Nanoscience

Green chemistry and Nano science are both emerging fields that take advantage of molecular-level designing and have enormous potential for advancing our science. Nano science is the study of materials that are on the length-scale of 100 nanometers or smaller and have properties that are dependent on their physical size. The principles of green chemistry can guide responsible development of Nano science, while the new strategies of Nano science can fuel the development of  greener products and processes. Phytochemicals occluded in tea have been extensively used as dietary supplements and as natural pharmaceuticals in the treatment The parallel development of green chemistry and Nano science and the potential synergy of the two fields can lead to more successful and profitable technologies with reduced environmental impacts and improved conservation of resources. In recent years, green synthesis of  metal nanoparticles is an interesting issue of the nanoscience.

Track 6: Nanotechnology in Biology

Nanotechnology is enabling technology that deals with Nano-meter sized objects. It is expected that nanotechnology will be developed at several levels: materials, devices and systems.

And it can be even used to characterize the single molecules or cells at extraordinarily high throughput.  Nanoparticles with distinctive chemical compositions, sizes, shapes, and surface chemistries can be engineered easily and this technique has wide range of applications in biological systems. Utility of nanotechnology to biomedical sciences imply creation of materials and devices designed to interaction in sub-cellular scales with a high degree of specificity. 

Track 7: Organic Nanoparticles

Biopolymer nanoparticles are offering numerous advantages which embrace the simplicity of their preparation from well-understood biodegradable, biocompatible polymers and their high stability in biological fluids during storage. Since the emergence of Nanotechnology in the past decades, the development and design of organic and  bioorganic nanomaterials has become an important field of research. And several types of polymers have been tested and are used in drug delivery systems; including nanoparticles, dendrimers, capsosomes and micelles. Researchers have found, the synthesized polymers even serves as a good carrier and plays a vital role in carrying a drug. And in other hand they are used in food industries too for food package purposes. There are thousands of organic chemicals are in present in various pharmaceutical to consumer product and are being used in dyes, flavoring agents. It can be explained in organic compounds ranging in diameter from 10 to 1μm. Ultrafine particles are the same as nanoparticles and between 1 and 100 nanometers in size, fine particles are sized between 100 and 2,500 nanometers, and coarse particles cover a range between 2,500 and 10,000 nanometers.

Track 8: Biological Synthesis of Nanoparticles  

The biological synthesis of nanoparticles is synthesis method through which we can control, size and shape of nanoparticles and it increasingly regarded as a rapid, ecofriendly, and easily scaled-up technology. Over the past few years researches have shown their interest in metallic nanoparticles and their synthesis has greatly increased. However, drawbacks such as the involvement of toxic chemicals and the high-energy requirements of production. Synthesizing living organisms such as bacteria, fungi and plants is an alternative way to overcome the drawbacks. Plant mediated synthesis of nanoparticles is the green chemistry that connects. Generally, metal nanoparticles are synthesized and stabilized by using physical and chemical: the chemical approach, such as chemical reduction, electrochemical techniques , photochemical reactions in reverse micelles. There is a growing attention to biosynthesis the metal nanoparticles using organisms. Among these organisms, plants seem to be the best candidate and they are suitable for large scale biosynthesis of nanoparticles.

Track 9: Nanotechnology Based Drug Delivery System

Nanosystems with different compositions and biological properties have been extensively investigated for drug and gene delivery applications. To achieve efficient drug delivery it is important to understand the interactions of Nanomaterials with the biological environment, targeting cell-surface receptors, drug release, multiple drug administration, stability of therapeutic agents. Nanotechnology refers to structures roughly in the 1−100 nm size regime in at least one dimension. Despite this size restriction, nanotechnology commonly refers to structures that are up to several hundred nanometers in size and that are developed by top-down or bottom-up engineering of individual components.

Track 10: Nanosuspention Formulation

Nanosuspention formulation can be used to improve the solubility of the poorly soluble drugs. One of the major problems associated with poorly soluble drugs is very low bioavailability. The Preparation of Nanosuspentionis simple and applicable to all drugs which are water insoluble. It consists of the pure poorly water-soluble drug without any matrix material suspended in dispersion . Various techniques are used for the enhancement of the solubility of poorly soluble drugs which include physical and chemical modifications of drug and other methods like particle size reduction, crystal engineering, salt formation, solid dispersion, use of surfactant, complexation A range of parameters like solubility, stability at room temperature, compatibility with solvent, excipient, and photostability play a critical role in the successful formulation of drugs.

Concurrently, targeted delivery technologies are becoming increasingly important as a scientific area of investigation. Polymeric nanoparticles-based therapeutics show great promise in the treatment of a wide range of diseases, due to the flexibility in which their structures can be modified, with intricate definition over their compositions, structures and properties. Advances in  polymerization chemistries and the application of reactive, efficient and orthogonal chemical modification reactions have enabled the engineering of multifunctional polymeric nanoparticles.

Track 13: Nanobubble in Nanomedicine

In recent years, microbubble and Nano bubble technologies have drawn great attention due to their wide applications in many fields of science and technology, such as water treatment, biomedical engineering, and nanomaterials. Nano bubbles exhibit unique characteristics; due to their minute size and high internal pressure, they can remain stable in water for prolonged periods of time. Nanobubbles can be  created when gold nanoparticles are struck by short laser pulses. The short-lived bubbles are very bright and can be made smaller or larger by varying the power of the laser. Because they are visible under a microscope, nanobubbles can be used to either diagnose sick cells or to track the explosions that are destroying them.

Track 14: Natural Product Based Nanomedicine

Natural products have been used in medicine for many years. Many top-selling pharmaceuticals are natural compounds or their derivatives.. And  plant- or microorganism-derived compounds have shown potential as therapeutic agents against cancer, microbial infection, inflammation, and other disease conditions. Natural products had huge success in the post-World War II era as antibiotics, and the two terms have become synonymous. While large pharmaceutical companies have favored screening synthetic compound libraries for drug discovery, small companies have started to explore natural products’ uses against cancer, microbial infection, inflammation, and other diseases. The incorporation of nanoparticles into a delivery system for natural products would be a major advance in the efforts to increase their therapeutic effects. Recently, advances have been made showing that nanoparticles can significantly increase the bioavailability of natural products both in vitro and in vivo.  

Track 15: Nanotechnology in Food Science
