Abstract

Nanobiotechnology is placed in the intersection point of nanobiology, biotechnology, nanotechnology, and biology. This technique approach provides an angle to scientists to imagine new systematic gates to study on. From the point of biological sciences, it is an inspiring area for the studies which has not been created. The fungi can synthesize nanoparticles both inside and outside of their cells. In extracellular synthesis, after growing and obtaining the biomass these cells are incubated in the presence of metal salt solutions. The synthesis of nanobioparticles can be observed easily by looking at the color changes in the cultures. After completing the synthesis, nanoparticles were then subjected to centrifuge in high speed and density gradient. Then they were collected by washing with water or organic solvents like EtOH/MeOH. The main focus of this review is to introduce the application of fungi in the synthesis of nanoparticles biologically.
