Dr. Ghareeb M. Abdel-Aal, lecturer, Department of Pharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, Assiut University has conducted a study on the possibility of using nanotechnology in the medical field as an anti-fungal and anti-germs. In his study, Dr. Abdel-Aal explained that the use of this technique has truly led to an increased melting of the anti-fungal drug in water more than 80 times the regular method.  This has led to an increase in its effectiveness pathogenic fungi in human body, particularly the fungi existing in eyes.   Dr. Ghareeb confirmed that this study will encourage Egyptian drug companies to introduce a local product for the treatment of fungi-caused illnesses especially because no anti-fungal drugs are available for the treatment of eyes in the local drug market.   Dr. Ghareeb's study has been published in an international peer reviewed journal. The study was co-authored by Dr. Mohamed A Attiya, Professor Emeritus, Department of Pharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, and Dr. Ramadan A.
