Nanobots: A Revolutionary Technology in the Development of Pharmaceuticals

Nanobots are incredibly tiny, autonomously operating, and driven electronic devices or tiny robots that can be designed or remotely instructed to do some particular functions like detection, drug delivery, or diagnosis. They have been recognized as an innovative tool to be used in the biomedical industry. The field of nanobotics has become increasingly interested in the growing efforts to create miniature automated systems that can effectively convert energy into functional movement. Smart nanobots, which differ from traditional huge mechanical robots, provide their application in gene therapy, cancer treatment, surgery, and disease diagnosis. The total command over the bots at all times and the extremely low likelihood of any negative effects are the major characteristics that set nanobots apart from other traditional or new dosing forms. Micro- and nanobots have the ability to deliver medications to the desired locations. In this review, we have discussed nanobots, their design, types, working in the body, and applications in pharmaceuticals.
