Why are Toxicological Assays Important in Nanotechnology?
Nano-sized materials have unique physical, chemical, and biological properties that can lead to unexpected interactions with biological systems. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate their biocompatibility and potential toxicity. Toxicological assays help in ensuring that the use of nanomaterials in products, such as medical devices, drug delivery systems, and consumer goods, is safe for humans and the environment.
