How Do Interaction Effects Influence Nanomaterial Toxicity?
Interaction effects can significantly impact the toxicity of nanomaterials. For example, the interaction of nanoparticles with biological systems can lead to oxidative stress, inflammation, or cellular damage. Factors such as size, shape, surface charge, and coating of nanoparticles can determine their biocompatibility and toxicity. Understanding these interactions is essential for designing safer nanomaterials for use in biomedical applications.
