Nanotechnology/Nanoscience: Way towards Creating a Cure for Hepatitis B and other Viral Infections

Nanotechnology has been tagged as one of the emerging science owed to the fact that its processes and instrumentation originates to existing sciences and its creation was made out of the need of the scientific community to come up with instrumentation and knowledge base that would address most of the processes that is beyond the scope of one science; or needs the help of another related science to aid its completion.

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are just some of the hot sciences today and these could be one of the key to some of intriguing challenges in the field of medicine and material science and engineering.

The manipulation of minute agents and how these particles will interact with structures smaller than that of viruses is a dream that was made possible by the nanoscience. Scientists are beginning to speculate that the next 20 years be the birth of powerful sciences that will provide solutions to most of the medical health problems plaguing humans today.

Current the scientific community is exploring nanotechnology in the development of viricides (nanoviricides) that destroys viruses and prevent their injurious activity to a specific cell type.

The future looks exciting to this science and I just hope that it will accelerate the development of therapeautical agents that will finally provide a cure to Hepatitis and other viral diseases.
