great potential to bring the science of indecipherable minute gadget to proximity of
real life. At some point, the impact of these evolutions will be so enormous that it
will most likely impact nearly all areas of science and technology. In medicine, a
broad range of uses is presented by nanotechnology especially in the area of drug
delivery and tissue biomimetics. There is no doubt that this technology has brought
the hope of giving birth to new things and materials that may culminate in effective management and finding lasting solutions to life threatening clinical conditions.
There are many arguments about the implication of nanobiotechnology in the days
ahead which could give birth to possible enactment on several new products and
gadgets, which might be of great use in the medical, biomaterials, energy and electrical field. Buzea et al. (2007) reported that the approach might aggravate several
issues related to the emergence of a new technology like the impact of nanomaterials on the environment, its toxicity and the its likely aftermath on the world’s
economy, likewise as hypothesizing on several future destructions that might likely
occur. The above agitations brought about an argument amidst concerned citizens
and the government on if exceptional enactment of certain status is needed. Despite
these arguments, nanotechnology still provides monumental expectation for the days
ahead. Sahoo and Labhasetwar (2003) said this might result into various new inventions by acting a leading part in different applicable fields like the use of biology and
physiology to clinical medicine including the delivery of drug and healing quality of
gene to molecular imaging, biomarkers and biosensors. The use of one of the above
mentioned being the major objective of the immediate period of time will be aimed
at a specific drug healing power and ways for early detection and cure for illnesses.
Biosynthesis of nanoparticles from mushroom cannot be overemphasized in recent
times due to available reports on its applications in areas like agriculture, electronics, food, optical, medicine, cosmetics and textile. The utilization of mushroom
for nanoparticles synthesis has an edge of simple operation and downstream procedure. The applications of nanotechnology required ample assessment of its pros and
cons. A lot of researchers who are in opposition of the use of this technology also
concur that the growth in nanotechnology should proceed since this area guarantees
massive advantages nevertheless investigations have to be done so as to ascertain
its hazardous effect on the environment, other living organisms and well-being of
people. In a nutshell, if all goes well, nanobiotechnology will become an unavoidable
part of human’s daily living, economic hub, promising technology in the industries
and securing many lives.
9 Safety Evaluation of Nanoparticles
Although mushroom-mediated nanoparticles are believed to be safe, the safety of
nanoparticles in general is a debate in the today’s world. Nanoparticles have possible
threats akin to atmospheric aerosol particles following its very nanosized feature
which gives a special edge (Li et al. 2007). These particles have the potential to give
rise to various medical science of the ventilatory, circulatory and digestive system
