Study on the toxicity of inhaled alumina nanoparticles: impact of physicochemical properties and adsorption artifacts on the measurement of biological responses
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work aims at developping a multidisciplinary approach to highlight the correlation between the toxicity of alumina engineered nanoparticles (NP) and their physicochemical characteristics. Accuracy of measurements depends on cell production after contact with particles, but also depends on the ability of biomolecules to get adsorbed on the NP [1]. That’s why, mechanisms of biomolecules adsorption on NP must be fully understood to avoid misinterpretation of data.
