What are the Challenges in Toxicity Testing of Nanomaterials?
Several challenges exist in toxicity testing of nanomaterials:
- Standardization: Lack of standardized protocols makes it difficult to compare results across different studies. - Complexity: The diverse nature of nanomaterials requires a wide range of tests to cover all potential toxic effects. - Dosimetry: Accurate measurement of nanomaterial dose and exposure levels is challenging due to their small size and tendency to agglomerate.
