Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Materials Science
  • Toxicology

Background:

  • Nanoparticles exhibit unique properties beneficial for applications but can pose risks to human health and the environment.
  • Entry into the body via inhalation, injection, ingestion, or skin contact leads to interactions with physiological fluids.
  • These interactions, including protein layer formation, dissolution, and aggregation, significantly influence cellular responses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the diversity of physiological fluids encountered by nanoparticles.
  • To present an inventory of experimental techniques for studying nanoparticle behavior in physiological fluids.
  • To emphasize the importance of characterization for predicting nanoparticle interactions.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on physiological fluids and nanoparticle interactions.
  • Survey of experimental techniques for nanoparticle characterization in biological media.
  • Analysis of factors influencing nanoparticle behavior, such as size, shape, and functionalization.

Main Results:

  • Physiological fluids present a complex environment affecting nanoparticle properties.
  • Nanoparticle behavior (dissolution, aggregation, protein corona formation) is highly dependent on fluid composition and nanoparticle characteristics.
  • Characterization techniques are essential for understanding these behaviors and their implications.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding nanoparticle behavior in physiological fluids is critical for assessing health and environmental risks.
  • The diversity of nanoparticles necessitates robust characterization methods to predict their interactions.
  • Further research into nanoparticle-physiological fluid interactions will guide safe design and application.
