3. Nanopharmaceuticals provide two basic types of nanotools viz.nanomaterials and nanodevices, which play a key role of pharmaceutical nanotechnology.
4. It presents revolutionary opportunities to fight against many disease. This helps in detecting the antigen associated with diseases such as cancer, diabetes mellitus, neurodegenerative diseases, as well as detecting the microorganisms and viruses associated with infections.
5. Nanopharmaceuticals are selected for characteristics such as biodegradability, biocompatibility, conjugation, complexation or encapsulation and their ability to be functionalized.Nano Science & Technology Consortium
17. Nanopharmaceuticals provides intelligent and smart drug delivery systems which is expected to emerge as most important and powerful tool as alternate to conventional dosage form. Therefore most of industrial research interest lies in fact to exploit the new technology to develop drug delivery systems of available drugs in order to reduce or overcome their shortcoming like high toxicity, instability in biological environment, poor bioavailability, the low therapeutic concentration at site action which rendered them poor candidates in currently available dosage forms.
18. The world market for nanopharmaceuticals has grown from $406 million in 2004 to $3 billion in 2009 and will be $16.6 billion in 2014. Nano Science & Technology Consortium

20. The application of nanoparticulate systems in vaccination, chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, diagnostics, and drug/gene delivery has made Nanopharmaceuticals very much advantageous.
21. Nanopharmaceuticals show the most promise for the treatment of cancer. One such product called Doxil contains the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin encapsulated in liposomes-tiny fat bubbles less than 200 nanometers in diameter.
24. Keeping the increasing potential of Nanopharmaceuticals- this innovative program comes in play and explains the current procedures which have been taking place in drug industries such as Nano Drug Delivery, Pulmonary Drug Delivery by Nanoparticles, Tablet Production by Nanosystems, Laboratory Synthesis of Nanoparticles etc.
25. This also explains about the Nanopharma based Supplements, Drugs ,Therapies ,Cosmetics.
26. Nanomaterials such as Dendrimers, Nanotubes, Nanoliposomes, Drug Nanocrystals etc. have been applying in Pharma Industries for developing more improved and effective products. Thus This innovative program updates the knowledge of pharma professionals and help them to enter & grow in pharmaceutical & health care industries. Nano Science & Technology Consortium
