They can be attached to a
antibody or another molecule capable of binding itself to a substance of interest, which makes them very interesting as markers in molecular diagnostics, flow cytometry and
fluorescence microscopy.
They are spherical and therefore have three dimensions.
They have a particle size between 0.1 and 100 nm in each space
dimensional.
Allotropic form of carbon, it is made up of 60
carbon atoms, all of them equivalent, indistinguishable and
each bonded to three other carbons, forming part of
two hexagons and a pentagon that gives rise to a structure
closed.
Sciences and techniques dedicated to the study, design, creation, synthesis,
control, manipulation and application of materials, devices and systems
functional on a nano scale.
Number of dimensions and size less than 100 nm.
-One dimension
-Two dimensions
-Three dimensions
Macromolecular compounds with clear incidence on the biology of living beings (especially among human mammals) and that are giving way to a series of medical, clinical and pharmaceutical applications in increase.
Made up of nanoparticles
of inorganic materials, such as silicon, gallium nitrite, and indium phosphate, which are assembled as a grid.
They have very different properties from their large-scale counterparts.
scale due to its high area / surface and force / weight ratio, and the
appearance of quantum effects.
They are an elemental form of carbon,
like diamond, graphite or fullerenes.
They are made up of curved and closed hexagonal carbon networks, forming nanometric carbon tubes.
Nanotechnology branch with direct applications in medicine, which allows the approach of diseases from inside the body, at a cellular or molecular level.
