The design of Opto-Nanomaterials showed high impact on different Research Fields within Life Sciences. In this manner from Nanoscience towards Biotechnology Research it was opened new Research fields. Thus, the synthesis of new Nano-Biostructures for Biophotonics, and Biotechnology permitted studies related with strategies for Biomolecular detection, Bioimaging, targeted drug delivery; and energy. In addition, the generation of non-classical light from Nanophotonic Nanoplatforms based on Plasmonics and Quantum Phenomena showed high impact on Nanotechnology as Plasmonic Light Emitter Devices (P-LEDs) and Waveguide devices , . In this context it was of our interest the study of Luminescent Nanoarchitectures based on Metal Enhanced Fluoresccence (MEF) and Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transference (FRET) , coupled to P and Enhanced Plasmonic (EP) Nanoarchitectures . Then, the obtained Nanoparticles with Ultraluminescent properties were joined to different Biostructures as Bacteria with optical active and non-optical active properties. For example it was fabricated Biocompatible Ultraluminescent gold Core-shell silica Nanoparticles based on MEF accompanied with diminished photobleaching properties that permitted, by non-covalent deposition over no-optical active Eschericcia Coli bacteria, the generation of well-shaped Ultraluminescent Nano-Biostructures . These types of Nano-Biostrucures were evaluated as well by the use of Optical active Biostructures. By this manner non-classical Bio-light pathways were studied. Thus, it was generated Enhnaced Luminescent Nano-Biostructures based on Bio-FRET pathways by tuning the Luminescent Nanoplatforms and excitation Laser applied. In this way, in the presentation it will be showed and disscussed the main variables that it should be controlled in order to record tunable Enhanced Luminescent Synthetic Nano-Biostructures.
