  A Review on Nanotoxicology

  By 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 …

  An Introduction of Nanotechnology: Classification, Uses, and Applications of Nanomaterials

  By Purva Saxena

  Abstract: Nanomaterials (NMs) have acquired noticeable quality in creative advancements due to their tuneable physical, synthetic, and organic qualities with improved performance over their mass counterparts. The order of the NMs is determined by their size, creation, form, and starting. The ability to predict the unique features of NMs increases the value of each order. Because of the increased growth of NM creation and their current uses, difficulties relating to harmfulness …
