Abstract:
Nanomaterials have many advantages over bulk materials, including enhanced surface-to-volume proportion as well as magnetic traits. It has been a steady rise in research with using nanomaterials in various biomedical fields in the past few decades. Constructing nanomaterials has emerged as a leading research primary concern in order to discover specialized biomedical applications. Since, their advantageous properties including chemical stability, non-toxicity, bio - compatibility, relatively high magnetization, and strong magnetic vulnerability, nanoparticles of iron oxide had already influenced implementations in different biomedical fields. Nanomaterials can be divided up into four nanomaterials such as metallic nanomaterials, bimetallic or alloy nanomaterials, metal oxide nanomaterials, as well as magnetic nanomaterials. Hence, the purpose of this review is to conduct such in discussion on emerging advancements in nanomaterials for biomedical, with such a special emphasis upon those options of nanomaterials including metallic nanomaterials: Au and Ag, bimetallic nanomaterials: Fe-Co and Fe-Pt, and metal oxides: TiO2 and CeO2. Securing this information gap will result in a better comprehension of the contribution of nanomaterial type and subsequent huge-scale applications in aspects of both their potential and challenges.
