Health and Environmental Safety of Nanomaterials: Polymer Nanocomposites and other Materials Containing Nanoparticles, Second Edition updates on new developments in the field of nanomaterials safety, both at release and exposure. The book covers the advanced modeling approaches that are helping to elucidate nano-risks by addressing (quantitative) structure-activity relationships, the modeling of the interaction of nanoparticles with biological (macro) molecules, biochemical pathways and systems and/or the analysis of biomolecular signatures and the development of biomarkers suitable to characterize the impact of engineered nanoparticles. As numerous studies have been dedicated to the biophysical interactions of nanoparticles with the human body at the organ, cellular and molecular levels, this book helps readers understand where the research stands with regard to safety and environmental aspects.
