Abstract :

Nanotechnology represents the most important issue in the development of different scientific and practical fields. For example, the urgent task of modern care of public health is developing completely brand-new, "smart" drug formulations that can provide a superior therapeutic efficacy with minimum side effects. Moreover, the research in this direction might able to achieve the unexpected decisions when choosing therapy for various, including widespread and extremely dangerous, diseases. In particular, biodegradable nano-containers with stipulated physical and chemical, as well as biological (biomimetic) properties of surface, which smoothly invaded in the natural processes of human body, enable to provide such results. Thus, the special attention is paid to the application of nano-technology to biology, biotechnology and medicine. The problems of the creation of carefully designed smart biomaterials and nanodevices will be discussed using the examples of the projects realized in presenting department. The prospectives of nanoapproaches in biomedicine will be demonstrated.
