How Do Nanoparticles Affect Cell Viability?

Nanoparticles can affect cell viability through various mechanisms:
- Oxidative Stress: Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can damage cellular components.
- Membrane Damage: Disruption of cellular membranes leading to cell death.
- Inflammatory Responses: Inducing inflammatory pathways that can compromise cell viability.
- Genotoxicity: DNA damage that can lead to cell death or mutations.
