Green nanotechnology involves the development of smaller and more efficient materials while prioritizing the reduction of harm to the environment and the improvement of human well-being. Scientists are utilizing environment friendly techniques to synthesize nanomaterials, resulting in solutions that are both potent and environmentally safe for future generations. Green nanotechnology is centered around achieving a harmonious combination of the immense possibilities offered by nanoscience and the pressing necessity to safeguard our planet. This book demonstrates how this subject is not only spearheading a technical revolution but also fostering a fresh surge of environmental awareness. Green nanotechnology is paving the way for a future in which innovation and environmental responsibility are closely intertwined, by prioritizing sustainable development. This book thoroughly examines the fundamental principles of green nanotechnology particularly using medicinal plants and investigates its role in promoting sustainable practices in the fields of medicine and therapeutics. It elucidates the ways in which green synthesis techniques are enhancing the safety and sustainability of nanomaterial production. This book examines the application of nanotechnology in developing effective remedies for treating bacterial, fungal, and several chronic human ailments. Nanotechnology is leading the way in revolutionizing healthcare, by addressing persistent infections and enhancing the treatment of chronic diseases. In the complex interplay of existence, where each cell and molecule fulfills a vital role, the emergence of nanotechnology has brought forth a revolutionary ally. Nanotechnology, which operates at the atomic and molecular level, is crucial for significant breakthroughs in human health. Nanotechnology is a revolutionary force that is fundamentally changing our understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases, rather than simply being a tool. This book explores the innovative methods in which nanotechnology is being developed to seamlessly integrate with the body's inherent mechanisms. This book offers innovative applications that navigate the bloodstream to eradicate pathogens, selectively target nanoparticles that release medication only when necessary, and provide mechanistic insights.
