Nanotechnology and Respiratory Health


What is Nanotechnology? Nanotechnology is the science related to all small things.Particularly rgose measuring less than 100 mm in size (NNIN,2017). One manometer is 10-9 meters or about 3 atoms long. Materials or elements in small dimensions  , small particles and  thin films that can have a significant effect and poses different properties than that of larger elements ; and materials.

When these differences are well comprehended we can learn about the assembly , control and  its composition and the order of  these properties to comprise materials ;   proceses , and patterns that better serve populations and increase quality of life .

Particulate matter for example are measured in PMs of 10 , 15 , and 25 with 25 being the largest . Nano technology can assist social and behavioral scientist in assessing the behavioral response of asthma sufferers by observing behavior that are manifested during an exacerbation . These usually can be correlated with measuring particulate matter to distinguish appropriate behavior and implement prevention and decrease disease burden.

In addition nanotechnology can assist  scientists in determining shelf life of medications , cosmetics , aerosoles and many other elements related to the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals .This has great significance to such disiplines as STEAM education and Public Health  because we can use nanotechnology for intance to evaluate catalytic combustion in forest fires to examine the conditions that enable these natural disasters and reduce risk to human life and secure assets and lively hood.
