Nanobots


One of the most developing technologies today!!! Yes, it is NANOTECHNOLOGY. The term nanobot is like an acronym for nanotechnology robots. I feel it is a unique idea to combine robotics with medical treatment because robots are the ones which never make mistakes and using these Robots in medical field will definitely produce efficient results without any fault. After several experiments and workouts scientists introduced many ideas but I would like to stress upon two ideas which I consider the best and the useful ones.
1. Estimating the number of cancer cells
Cancer is a chronic disease where unusual multiplication of cells takes place. These nanobots are of small size (nanometers). These nanobots contain nano probes  which are injected into the body. These are programmed to estimate the advancement of cancer level in the body. The code is written in such a way that depending on the number of cells (extra) present in the body, it indicates a colour which clearly shows the extent to which cancer is developed in the body. Suppose there are 200 extra cells produced in the body then the system indicates yellow colour which means (starting stage). If there are 400 extra cells present in the body then it indicates black colour which means certainly advanced stage, more than 400 cells indicate red colour which means fully advanced stage. There is nothing much to do with coding part but the main problem lies in the designing of robots, so it would be major task for the people who design them as it is important to ensure that the size of the robot must be perfectly dimensioned to enter into the body. 


2. Curing cancer with magnetic nano particles
The concept behind nano probes scientists is deceptively simple, when an iron particle is placed in a magnetic field it spins back and forth releasing heat. In the same way if a number of nano iron particles are injected into the target sites in the human body(where tumors are developed) they also release heat thereby cooking cancer!!!! This idea has many limitations
too... One of the major limitation is the usage of iron particle is very much poisonous and for this idea to be worked out we need to use millions of iron particles. So in order to overcome this, scientists thought of using non toxic iron particles and they even tested this on animals which gave a successful result. It cured cancer for many animals!!!!
Finally I would conclude that I feel that usage of nanoprobes is the best idea to develop cancer curing agents and it is also obvious that preparing non toxic ferro particles is also not so easy, but it would be a remarkable pavethrough for the scientists if they develop this idea.
