Abstract
Green nanoparticles are being used in the field of pharmaceutical industry to
convert them into pharmacologically effective agents that are used to cure many
dangerous diseases. Inventions have been done in this area to prepare non-toxic and
pharmacologically beneficial drugs to save life of humans and to preserve the
environment to its originality. This chapter gives information about the different types
of nanoparticles that are used in the form of drugs such as Dendrimers, Micelles, Drug
conjugates, Protein nanoparticles, Nano-gels, Nanotubes of carbon and Nano-diamonds
etc. It has been found that incorporation of green nanoparticles into drug reduces the
toxicity level of the drug and used to cure Cancer, Infectious disorders, Auto-immune
disorders, Cardiovascular Diseases, Neurodegenerative diseases, Disorders of the eye
and lungs etc. Along with this, the chapter describes the various route of administration
of nanoparticles with appropriate mechanisms.
