Nanotechnology is set to impact a wide range of various fields, including medicine, materials technology, environmental sciences, and engineering/manufacturing. Nanoparticles are categorized depending on their size, composition, shape, and surface functionality. Due to the excessive growth of nanostructured materials (NSMs) in production and industrial applications, human and environmental exposure to them and their possible toxicity issues are inevitable. The main objective of this review is to study NSMs, in particular metallic and metallic oxide nanoparticles, and properties that have a determinative role in their bioimpacts.

Also, key factors on the toxicity of the nanoparticles such as shape, size, chemical composition, and surface functionality are discussed.

Abstract

Nanotechnology is set to impact a wide range of various fields, including medicine, materials technology, environmental sciences, and engineering/manufacturing. Nanoparticles are categorized depending on their size, composition, shape, and surface functionality. Due to the excessive growth of nanostructured materials (NSMs) in production and industrial applications, human and environmental exposure to them and their possible toxicity issues are inevitable. The main objective of this review is to study NSMs, in particular metallic and metallic oxide nanoparticles, and properties that have a determinative role in their bioimpacts. Nevertheless, the main focus is to provide an overview of NSMs toxicology. Medical and environmental applications of the NSMs are discussed here. Also, key factors on the toxicity of the nanoparticles such as shape, size, chemical composition, and surface functionality are discussed. Finally, toxicity of the nanoparticles is going to be highlighted, and relevant studies are critically compared. This review gives a broad scientific view for improving the functional efficiency of nanomaterials while mitigating their possible adverse and unintended effects on biological systems.
