NanoBiotechnology Protocols Series: Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 303 The combination of nanoscience and biotechnology promises to yield revolutionary biological insights, ranging from receptor function to drug discovery to personal medicine. In NanoBiotechnology Protocols, hands-on experts in nanomaterial synthesis and application describe in detail the key experimental techniques currently employed in novel materials synthesis, dynamic cellular imaging, and biological assays. The authors emphasize diverse strategies to synthesize and functionalize the use of nanoparticles for biological applications. Additional chapters focus on the use of biological components (peptides, antibodies, and DNA) to synthesize and organize nanoparticles to be used as a building block in larger assemblies. These new materials make it possible to image cellular processes for longer durations, leading to high throughput cellular-based screens for drug discovery, drug delivery, and diagnostic applications.

Title: Nanobiotechnology (New Syllabus)
In the name of God Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Title: Nanobiotechnology (New syllabus) Chapter one Introduction 1- Course description Nanobiotechnology is regarded as a novel field in multidisciplinary science that evolved from the intersection of nanotechnology and biology. This novel field of research is a bridge between physics, chemistry, and engineering with biology that aims are to design, construct and manipulate the chemical and biological systems on a nanometer scale to recognize the biological events. Nanobiotechnology is producing a new generation of knowledge of materials and systems that are widely applied in various fields involved in medicine, industry, environment, and agriculture. Therefore, it provides a new sight for students and researchers who works in physical and biological systems in nanoscale and also includes applications in medicine and industry. There are two strategies in the nanobiotechnology terminology: Top-down (Nanobiotechnology) In this definition, using nanotechnology science and the application of tools and instrumental analysis, the biological molecules and events will be studied in the nanoscale dimensions. Bottom-up (Bionanotechnology) In this strategy, using the inherent potential of living organisms and construction of the complex structures (like a protein expression and cell compartmentation) and application of simple materials, the nanoscale biomimetics machines will be invented. The goal of both perspectives is to design and fabricate products that are used to study living systems in nanoscale. However, nanobiotechnology using instruments and tools would be considered to study of biological molecules and events. Using these two terms is dependent on the specialized field of each researcher. At present, nanobiotechnology involves the application of optimized biological systems from the cells, cell compartments, nucleic acids and proteins for construction and fabrication of targeted mesoscopic and nanometer structures from inorganic and organic materials.

Synthetic biologists have begun to focus their biomolecular engineering approaches toward this goal, offering promising results that could lead to the development of new classes of inexpensive, rapidly deployable diagnostics. Many conventional diagnostics rely on antibody-based platforms that, although exquisitely sensitive, are slow and costly to generate and cannot readily confront rapidly emerging pathogens or be applied to orphan diseases. Synthetic biology, with its rational and short design-to-production cycles, has the potential to overcome many of these limitations. Synthetic biology devices, such as engineered gene circuits, bring new capabilities to molecular diagnostics, expanding the molecular detection palette, creating dynamic sensors, and untethering reactions from laboratory equipment. The field is also beginning to move toward in vivo diagnostics, which could provide near real-time surveillance of multiple pathological conditions. Here, we describe current efforts in synthetic biology, focusing on the translation of promising technologies into pragmatic diagnostic tools and platforms.

Nanobiotechnology Chapter
Teacher’s Notes Nanobiotechnology Overview Nano is a prefix that means “one-billionth.” The nanometer is one-billionth of a meter — much too small to see with the naked eye or even with a conventional light microscope. Nanotechnology involves creating and manipulating materials at the nano scale. This is a relatively new area for researchers, with rapidly growing commercial applications. By the end of 2011 there were more than 1,300 consumer products using some form of nanotechnology. Nanobiotechnology is biotechnology at the nano scale, and it has exciting applications in drug delivery systems, diagnostic medical tests and regenerative medicine. North Carolina universities and companies are developing many new nanobiotechnology applications. The goal of this chapter is to help students understand the science concepts on which nanobiotechnology is based and explore some of the many career possibilities in this exciting field. Italso is intended to provide a snapshot of some of the leading nanobiotechology research and manufacturing efforts in North Carolina. However, it is not intended to be a comprehensive summary. For a broader overview of nanobiotechnology efforts throughout the state, please refer to NCNanotechnology.com, a website created and maintained by the North Carolina Board of Science and Technology.

Harnessing Nanobiotechnology As a Diagnostic Tool to Improve Medical Laboratory Detection of Pathogenic Microorganisms

Taylor-Robinson, Infectious Diseases Research Group, School of Health, Medical & Applied Sciences, Central Queensland University, 160 Ann Street, Brisbane, QLD 4000, Australia. ABSTRACT A multitude of pathogenic microorganisms cause serious threats to human health and wellbeing. Rapid and accurate diagnosis is a critically important measure towards lowering the incalculable toll of morbidity and mortality from infectious diseases worldwide each year. The provision of early information enables a treating physician to prescribe an effective therapeutic intervention, thereby avoiding long-term clinical complications. From a public health perspective this also reduces the possibility of an infectious, undiagnosed patient unknowingly transmitting a given disease to others with whom they are in contact. Harnessing nanobiotechnology in the medical laboratory detection of microbial pathogens is advancing the diagnosis of infectious diseases by making use of very inexpensive materials to achieve highly sensitive and specific test results. Using nanoparticles, ultrafine molecules with high surface to volume ratio, enables attachment to the surface of targeted molecules, rendering them easily detectable by their optical and magnetic properties.

Gene Therapy Oversight: Lessons for Nanobiotechnology
anotechnology is the “next small thing” in Gene Therapy technological innovation. Spanning a range N of science and engineering disciplines, nano- Oversight: technology will dramatically alter products and pro- cesses upon which we currently rely and promises significant advances in technology. Federal agencies Lessons for taking part in the National Nanotechnology Initia- tive (NNI) have attempted to articulate a suitable Nanobiotechnology definition for nanotechnology. The NNI definition refers to “[r]esearch and technology development at the atomic scale, molecular or macromolecular levels, Susan M. Wolf, Rishi Gupta, and in the length scale of approximately 1-100 nanome- ter range[; creating] and using of structures, devices Peter Kohlhepp and systems that have novel properties and functions because of their small size and/or intermediate size[; and the ability] to control or manipulate at the atomic scale.”1 Nanotechnology thus refers to material engi- neered or altered at the nanoscale, in order to take advantage of unique properties that emerge at that scale. Nanomedicine is the sub-discipline of nanotech- nology striving to use this technology to improve existing therapeutics or create new ones.2 Scientists are currently developing new ways to fight cancer, for example, by creating nanostructures with unique optical properties that target cancer cells.3 Clinical tri- als on human cancer patients using nanoshells have also recently begun.4 These potentially life-saving techniques capitalize on the unique properties exhib- ited by nanostructures. But these techniques are also extensions of existing therapies and products that are already regulated: drugs, devices, and biologics, as well as combination products. This raises the press- ing question of whether existing oversight frameworks and regulatory approaches are adequate and appro- priate for nanomedicine.
