What are the potential risks of nanoparticle accumulation?
One of the major concerns regarding the long-term fate of nanoparticles is their potential to accumulate in the environment and biological systems. Persistent nanoparticles could lead to bioaccumulation in food chains, posing risks to both ecosystems and human health. Regulatory frameworks are being developed to assess and mitigate these risks, but more research is needed to fully understand the long-term implications.
