This review paper deals with the basic aspects and advancement of Nanotechnology and its varied applications in every possible field starting from biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, drug science energy related sectors and so on. They show some explicit properties like strength, electrical, optical and chemical properties. Nanoparticles show increment in plant productivity by showing direct interactions with plants or indirectly with soil. Nanoparticles can easily be synthesized utilizing microbes and plants so they are organically protected, savvy, and climate amicable. Nanoparticles are termed as “magic bullets” because of their extraordinary properties, and for this reason they are employed in production of nano herbicides, nano pesticides. Nanotechnology does the job of addressing distinctive natural and medical problems which occurs to happen with the unreasonable utilization of pesticides and fertilizers in horticultural practices. When used in an appropriate amount and concentration they cause positive effects on the respective plants. Some of these include increment in crop production, better quality, increased photosynthetic activity, biomass, chlorophyll content and the list go on. With every positive effect comes the detrimental ones also. Inhibition of root and shoot length, reduced seed germination, inefficiency in photosynthetic activity.

“…Nanosheets have unique physicochemical properties due to their ultrathin feature and two-dimensional (2D) structure . They have become emerging nanomaterials for the delivery, capture, detection, and analysis of biomolecules. − So far, a variety of two-dimensional nanosheets, such as graphene, black phosphorous nanoplatelets (BPs), graphite carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ), and boron nitride (BN), have been widely developed. − As burgeoning two-dimensional nanomaterials, metal–organic framework (MOF) nanosheets have regular porosity, a large specific surface area, and excellent stability . In addition, the MOFs composed of metal clusters and organic ligands possess abundant active sites.…”

The integration of nanomaterials and nucleic acids has attracted great attention in various research fields, especially biomedical applications. Designing two-dimensional nanomaterials and studying the mechanism of their interaction with nucleic acids are still attractive tasks. Herein, we designed and prepared a class of ultrathin two-dimensional metal–organic framework (MOF) nanosheets, named Zr-BTB MOF nanosheets, composed of Zr–O clusters and 1,3,5-benzenetribenzoate by a bottom-up synthesis strategy. The Zr-BTB MOF nanosheets possessed inherent excellent performance such as a high specific surface area, porosity, and biocompatibility. In addition, we clarified the interaction difference between the Zr-BTB MOF nanosheets and fluorophore-labeled double-stranded DNA and single-stranded DNA via molecular dynamics simulations and fluorescence measurement. Through molecular dynamics simulations, specific interactions between DNA and nanosheets such as forces, binding energies, and binding modes were deeply analyzed and clearly presented. Based on the affinity difference, the system showed the biosensing potential for target DNA detection with considerable specificity, sensitivity, and linearity. Our research results presented the Zr-BTB MOF nanosheet as a platform for nucleic acid detection, showing the potential for hybridization-based biosensing and related biological applications.
