Assessing the Impacts of Size, Structure, and Surface Chemistry on the Toxicity of Two High Production Organic Nanomaterials using the Embryonic Zebrafish Model

Creator:

Meredith, Ailcea N.

Abstract:

The low risk and sustainable implementation of nanotechnology requires understanding how nanomaterial physicochemical properties influence their toxicity. Major drivers of toxicity need to be avoided while maximizing product efficacy so nanomaterials can be produced to best serve their applications and be of low risk when intentionally or unintentionally released into...

Size and surface area dependent toxicity of silver nanoparticles in zebrafish embryos (Danio rerio)

Creator:

Tuttle, George R.

Abstract:

Many studies addressing the toxicity of silver nanomaterials have found that smaller sized silver nanoparticles are usually more toxic to organisms and in cell culture than particles of larger sizes yet it is not entirely clear why. We investigated the size dependent toxicity of silver nanoparticles by measuring the response...
