 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 11 Nanotechnology in Biomedical Applications Abstract Nano-technology is to study the nano-scale material properties, through the formation and use of nano-materials to achieve specific functionality and intelligent role in high-tech advanced technology. Introduction of nano-technology in biomedical application status and prospects, and analyzed the field of nanotechnology in biomedical applications of nano-materials, safety and cost. Keywords: nano-technology, nano-materials, bio-medicine In the United States in 1990, convened the first session of the International Conference on nano-technology, nano-technology development to become an important indication of progress. In 1999, the United States, Robert A Freitas Jr published a ‘nano-medicine’, shows the development of nanotechnology has prompted the people began to consider the various factors and explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment of nanotechnology in medicine, pharmacology, etc. applications. Nano-technology as an emerging technology in the biomedical field has very broad application prospects. A nano-technology Nano is the English translation of nanometre, such as meters, centimeters, millimeters, etc., is a unit of length. 1 nanometer (nm) is 10-9 m, that millionth of a millimeter, equivalent to the diameter of a hair 1/50000. More images speaking, if the object on the table tennis on the 1nm, like a ping-pong on the Earth. In the nano scale, quantum effects due to material, material of local significance and a tremendous surface, interface effect, the formation of the material properties have taken place in the leap from quantitative change to qualitative change, which mutation or create strange new phenomenon. Nanotechnology refers to research in nano-scale materials (including atomic, molecular manipulation) feature, through the formation and use of nano-materials to achieve specific functionality and intelligent role in high-tech advanced technology. The basic conc
