Cytotoxicity Induced by Nanoparticles - Standartisation of Methods within QualityNano FP7 Network
Original language description
Nanomaterials (NMs) have become crucial for many applications promising significant improvement in various aspects of quality of life. Indisputable benefits of NMs, however, might be discredited by concerns about potential adverse health effects arisingfrom unique properties related to the nanosize. Safety assessment of NMs is complicated by the fact that conventional methods are insufficient for evaluating their toxicity. Although new methods adapted for NMs are being extensively introduced by toxicologists, the lack of standardization causes inconsistency in existing toxicity data making it impossible to draw general conclusions about NM toxicity. QualityNano is a current European FP7 project aimed at developing and implementing best practice and quality in nanosafety assessment. As one of the participating laboratories, we evaluated cytotoxic potential of two reference NMs (non-cytotoxic 40nm carboxy-functionalized and cytotoxic 50nm amino-functionalized polystyrene nanoparticles)
