Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The toxicity of nanomaterials has been a growing area of concern in recent years due to their beneficial physical and chemical properties, as well as their increasing use in various industries. Over the past few decades, significant progress has been made in understanding the toxicity of nanomaterials. However, there is a continued need for innovative concepts and research methodologies in the study of nanomaterial toxicity.

The Special Issue "Toxicity of Nanomaterials: Current and Future Trends" aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the status of knowledge regarding the toxicity of nanomaterials, including their potential health and environmental effects. The focus of this issue will be on the latest research findings and trends in the field and will provide a platform for experts to discuss and debate the most pressing issues and challenges facing the field. The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date resource for researchers, practitioners, and policy makers, and to help advance our understanding of the toxicity of nanomaterials. The issue will be situated within the existing literature by building on and extending existing knowledge and providing new insights and perspectives on this important and rapidly evolving field.
