Nanotechnology is of increasing significance. Curation of nanomaterial data into electronic databases offers opportunities to better understand and predict nanomaterials’ behaviour. This supports innovation in, and regulation of, nanotechnology. It is commonly understood that curated data need to be sufficiently complete and of sufficient quality to serve their intended purpose....

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are increasingly used in biomedical applications,
hence understanding the processes that affect their biocompatibility and stability are of
significant interest. In this study, we assessed the stability of peptide-capped AuNPs and
used the embryonic zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a vertebrate system to investigate the impact
of synthesis...

Inherent nanomaterial characteristics, composition,
surface chemistry, and primary particle size,
are known to impact particle stability, uptake, and
toxicity. Nanocomposites challenge our ability to predict
nanoparticle reactivity in biological systems if they
are composed of materials with contrasting relative
toxicities. We hypothesized that toxicity would be
dominated by the nanoparticle...

Cellulose is an abundant and renewable resource currently being investigated for utility in nanomaterial form for various promising applications ranging from medical and pharmaceutical uses to mechanical reinforcement and biofuels. The utility of nanocellulose and wide implementation ensures increasing exposure to humans and the environment as nanocellulose-based technologies advance. Here,...
Driven by major scientific advances in analytical methods, biomonitoring, computation, and a newly articulated vision for a greater impact in public health, the field of exposure science is undergoing a rapid transition from a field of observation to a field of prediction. Deployment of an organizational and predictive framework for...
