toxicity to humans

What Makes Nanomaterials Potentially Toxic?

The unique properties of nanomaterials, such as their small size, large surface area, and high reactivity, can interact with biological systems in unforeseen ways. These interactions may lead to cellular damage, oxidative stress, and inflammation, which are critical factors in assessing nanotoxicity. Additionally, the ability of nanoparticles to cross biological barriers can result in widespread distribution within the body.
