About this book
Fundamentals of Nanotoxicology: Concepts and Applications provides an outline to fundamental concepts of nanotoxicology and their applications. The book opens historical oversights on nanotechnology, terminology, comparison of nanomaterial sizes, and an overview of regulations. It then goes on to cover types, classifications, sources and properties. It also delves into mechanisms of toxicity as well as health and safety assessments. Biomedical, agricultural, and food applications are explored, and ecotoxicology and the environmental impact on nanomaterials rounds out the book's overview of this topic.
This book will be a helpful resource for understanding concepts and current knowledge to academics, advanced students, and researchers interested in entering or learning more about this interdisciplinary field of study.
- Provides types, classifications, sources, properties, the application of nanomaterials, and impacts on humans and the environment
- Includes risk, hazard and exposure assessments, risk characterizations and testing strategies
- Discusses mechanisms of toxicity, organ and non-organ directed toxicity, and mammalian toxicology of nanomaterials
