Health and Environmental Effect of Nanoparticles

Wednesday, November 10, 2010: 3:15 PM
251 C Room (Salt Palace Convention Center)

Description:
Papers on nanoparticle related health effects, toxicity, particle uptake and metabolism are sought. Scientific contributions will elucidate relationships between nanomaterial chemical and physical properties and their biological activity. New methods leading to biocompatibility and reduced toxicological response are as well as reports on the latest advances in environmental effects arising from nanoparticles exposure and analysis are particularly welcome.
