Abstract

Nanotechnology has evolved in a wide range of disciplines as a leading research field with tremendous application. When nanomaterials are progressively developing part of daily consumer products, it is crucial to evaluate their effect on living organisms and the  environment. Physicochemical properties of nanoparticles and  engineered nanomaterials, including size, form, chemical composition, physiochemical stability, crystal structure, surface area, surface energy and surface roughness, usually influence the toxic properties of these nanomaterials. This forces the fraternity analysis to ascertain the role of these properties in the evaluation of associated toxicity issues. Despite this, questions relating to the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials as they contribute to the toxicity of nanomaterials are discussed in this paper.
