Nanoscientists is a term used to describe scientists working in nanoscience, which is the multidisciplinary science of organic, inorganic, and biological materials at roughly the molecular level, the area between 1 and 200 nanometers. For example, two-dimensional materials that are 1 atom thick.

the enzymes are naturally occuring in pee. The urea fosters 
biodegredation quickly.
