Towards Predicting Their Toxicity and Physico-Chemical Properties
Nanomaterials are becoming an important component of the modern life and have been the subject of increasing number of investigations involving various areas of natural sciences and technology. However, theoretical modeling of physicochemical and biological activity of these species is still very scarce. The prediction of the properties and activities of ‘classical’ substances via correlating w...
متن کاملAdvantages and limitations of classic and 3D QSAR approaches in nano-QSAR studies based on biological activity of fullerene derivatives
In this contribution, the advantages and limitations of two computational techniques that can be used for the investigation of nanoparticles activity and toxicity: classic nano-QSAR (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships employed for nanomaterials) and 3D nano-QSAR (three-dimensional Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships, such us Comparative Molecular Field Analysis, CoMFA/Compa...
متن کاملModeling of Interactions between the Zebrafish Hatching Enzyme ZHE1 and A Series of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles: Nano-QSAR and Causal Analysis of Inactivation Mechanisms
The quantitative relationships between the activity of zebrafish ZHE1 enzyme and a series of experimental and physicochemical features of 24 metal oxide nanoparticles were revealed. Vital characteristics of the nanoparticles' structure were reflected using both experimental and theoretical descriptors. The developed quantitative structure-activity relationship model for nanoparticles (nano-QSAR...
متن کاملPredicting toxic potencies of metal oxide nanoparticles by means of nano-QSARs.
BACKGROUND The enormous physicochemical and structural diversity of metal oxide nanoparticles (MeONPs) poses significant challenges to the testing of their biological uptake, biodistribution, and effects that can be used to develop understanding of key nano-bio modes of action. This has generated considerable uncertainties in the assessment of their human health and environmental risks and has ...
متن کامل3D-QSAR Modeling of Anti-oxidant Activity of some Flavonoids
The anti-oxidant activities for a diverse set of flavonoids as TEAC (Trolox equivalent anti-oxidant capacity), assay were subjected to 3D-QSAR (3 dimensional quantitative structural-activity relationship) studies using CoMFA (comparative molecular field analysis) and CoMSIA (comparative molecular similarity indices analysis). The obtained results indicated superiority of CoMSIA model over CoMFA...
