A Review on Nanotoxicology

Shalini Shukla

Abstract

Nanotoxicology shows a novel and extended area for research in toxicology. It deals with the study and application of the toxicity of Nanomaterials. In nanotoxicological studies, nanomaterials such as gold and silver elements becomes highly active and hence, it is important to know to what extent their properties can pose threat to environment and living beings as well. Nanoparticles play a remarkable rule in toxicity, which is important for toxicologists especially in respiratory diseases. Nanoscience contains several applications in several fields and the use of nanomaterials can be in biomedical research, electronics, composite and constituent materials, and materials sciences, etc. All these applications showed potential interest to several biological processes such as blood, coagulation control etc. and these formed a novel field called nanobiotechnology. This review paper is all about nanotoxicology and their threats to humankind. Interestingly, the smaller the particles size is, it can cause more harm to the inside of the body organs, as they can travel by air easily and cannot be visible to naked eyes; therefore, any internal toxicity of particle surface can be highlighted.
