摘要: The emerging field of nanotechnology has created risk for environment and human health. Nanoparticles are not a recent discovery. It existed many years. Today synthesis nanoparticles takes place applications in various science, technology, medicine, colloid technologies, diagnostics, drug delivery, health impacts, food, personal care etc. In spite this, toxicology is poorly understood as there no sufficient methods to test health, safety environmental especially the size range lower than 50nm.
