Toxicity of Nanomaterials
«
"This multiauthor volume offers a compilation of quality essays edited to furnish a comprehensive overview of the toxicological and environmental impact of nanomaterials. Significant emphasis is placed on the morphology of nanomaterials and the potential for toxicity to emerge during their synthesis and application. The essays are well written and easy to read despite the exhaustively referenced scientific and technical knowledge represented by their content. They cover much ground while emphasizing fundamental concepts and approaches to assessing and evaluating nanomaterials for their toxicity and impact on health. This book ought not, however, to be treated as a textbook in the usual sense, as a considerable foundation in nanotechnology, physical chemistry, biochemistry, and cellular biology will be essential for a reader to fully benefit from working through its content. The volume will be of greatest interest to advanced graduate students, scholars, and researchers at the doctoral or post-doctoral level working in the fields of nanotechnology, bioengineering, or medicine.
