What Are the Excretion Pathways for Nanoparticles?
Nanoparticle excretion primarily occurs through the renal (kidneys) and hepatic (liver) pathways. Renal excretion is more common for smaller nanoparticles, while larger particles may be processed by the liver and excreted via bile. Understanding these pathways is essential for predicting the long-term fate of nanoparticles in the body.
