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...

A Nano-sized Dose of Toxicology: Elucidating the Disconnect Between Nanomaterial Dosimetry and Biological Effects

Creator:

Slattery, Matthew R.

Abstract:

Nanotechnologies continue to permeate a multitude of industries, with diverse applications ranging from pesticides to fuel additives. The unusual behavior of nanomaterials that drives their innovation also complicates the job of toxicologists tasked with assessing their potential environmental and public health impacts. This dissertation investigates the underlying reasons for uncertainty...
