This work focuses on the potential of nanotechnology in nanomedicine, mainly cardiovascular pharmacology discipline, including
the highlighted rational approaches in design, manufacturing, development, and applications of nanodevices (smart drugs)
containing nanoparticles that acts as nanocarriers to control and direct for site-specific targeted smart drug delivery into human body
using artificial receptors and unique nanoparticle systems for diagnostics, screening, medical imaging, prevention, and correction of
cardiovascular pathologies therapy after administration routes. Our aim is to develop the most efficient pathways for nanomedicine
so that biomolecular and cellular techniques, tools and method with the nanotechnology knowledge base can be merged, as it
specifically relates to the development of nanoparticles for enabling and improving targeted delivery of the therapeutic agents and;
developing novel and more effective diagnostic and screening techniques to extend the limits of molecular diagnostics providing
point-of-care diagnosis and more personalized medicine.
Influence of Mg2+, Ca2+ and Sr 2+ ions doping on the band gap energy of ZnO nanoparticle

Jimma University, Ethiopia
Nanocrystalline materials have attracted a wide attention for application in nanodevice fabrication due to their unique properties
and immense potential. Among various nanocrystalline materials ZnO nanoparticles have shown great potential for numerous
applications. Owing to the unique properties of the ZnO nanoparticle, this study was conducted to investigate the lowering of the
band gap energy and optical property doped with Mg2+, Ca2+ and Sr2+ ions. ZnO nanoparticle was synthesized by adding zinc acetate
to aqueous NaOH solution and subjected to ultrasonic irradiation for 2 hr, after that a white precipitate was obtained which was
filtered and washed with ethanol and de-ionized water, and dried in an oven at 600C for 3 hr. The dried white powder was then
calcined at 4000C for 2 hr and subjected to UV-Vis spectrophotometer to characterize the synthesized ZnO nanoparticle. The band
gap energy of ZnO undoped and doped with Mg2+, Ca2+ and Sr2+ ions was determined. From all dopants 0.006 M Mg 2+ doped ZnO
nanoparticles was found to be narrowing band gap more. A significant change in optical property was also observed in synthesized
ZnO nanoparticle.
