Abstract :
A game-changing tool in veterinary medicine is nanotechnology, which is the modification of material at the nano-scale (1-10nm). This technology is used in the field of medicine as a nanomedicine that can be applied to create effective vaccines, disease diagnosis and prevention, targeted drug delivery, and prevent drug resistance in animals. Nanoparticles like metallic, polymeric, liposomes, and exosomes improve the solubility, bioavailability of the drugs, and their therapeutic effect by reducing the dosage and effectiveness of the drugs. Infectious diseases like FMD, MRSA, and inflammatory bowel disease can all be well-treated with the precise distribution of the drug to the targeted site. In addition, the NPs act as carriers for the vaccines to improve and boost the immune response. Some obstacles, such as biological hurdles, precise delivery, regulatory complications, and financial limitations, that we have to face. Overall, nanotechnology holds a promising future in animal health, offering new approaches for the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases.
