What Factors Influence Nanoparticle Uptake?

Several factors influence the efficiency and route of nanoparticle uptake, including:
Particle Size: Smaller particles are generally internalized more efficiently.
Surface Charge: Positively charged particles interact more readily with negatively charged cell membranes.
Surface Functionalization: Ligands or antibodies on the surface can target specific receptors.
Shape: Spherical particles are typically internalized more easily than rod-shaped or irregular particles.
