Abstract.

Nanotechnology  has  potential  on  a  very large  scale  to  increase  the  selectivity and  potential  of many physical,  chemical  and  biological  approach  to  draw  out  cancerous  cell  death and  lowering the  toxicity  to  non  malignant  cell  .  designing  of  multifunctional  nanomaterials  that  are  capable  of targeting  tumour  cell  delivering  and  releasing  drugs in  a  regulated  manner  and  detecting  tumour with  greatest  specificity .  Cancer  is  the  major cause  of mortality  throughout  the  world  this  type  of advanced  technology are  urgently  needed.  The  development  of nanomaterials    and  nanocarrier has    allowed  to  improve  drug  delivery  in  tumor. The  major  role  of  these  nanocarrier    application has  been  to  pr otect  these  nanomaterials  from  rapid  degradation to  certain  enzymes and  allow  it to  reach  safely  at  the  tumor  site.  These  nanocarriers  are  use  to  deliver  drugs either  by  passive targeting  by leaky tumor  vasculature  or  by active  targeting  by ligand(receptor mediated endocytosis).  Different  cancer  detection technique  like  carbon  nanotubes  (CNTs)  nanorods  and biosensors  are  available.  This  writeup  proposal  give  us  an  idea  about  the  possible  potential  of nanotechnology  in  drugs  delivery  drug  targeting  designing of cancer.
