Abstract :

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are rapidly evolving fields that have potential to revolutionize not only to the food systems but also in the field of agriculture science especially for medicinal plants. It can seek to address some of the critical sustainable development problems in the areas of agriculture, biodiversity, water, energy, health and environment and ecosystem management when it tandem with other measures. Nanotechnology has potential applications in controlling nutrient release and availability, characterization and weathering of soil minerals, soil properties, nutrient ion transport in soil plant system, zeoponics, water conservation, water treatment and efficient management of soil and ground water pollution. Hence nano-fertilizers help to sustain increase of plant growth as compared to normal which lead to accumulation of higher amount of active principles. Even nanoparticles of medicinal herb drugs possess many benefits, such as improving component solubility, enhancement of bioavailability, increasing absorbency of the organism, reducing medicinal herb doses, and achieving steady-state therapeutic levels of drugs over an extended period compared with traditional herb drug preparations. Furthermore, specific surface modifications and new design strategies of herbal drug nano-particles are created to profit clinical applications in cosmetic science and drug discovery.
