An overview on nanoparticles used in biomedicine and their cytotoxicity

Nanotechnology is the development of engineered nanoparticles to use in biomedical applications. Nanoparticles have unique physicochemical properties for use in biomedicine, however, their cytotoxicity has demonstrated in some situations that have caused concern about their clinical application. Nanoparticles must be non-toxic and biocompatible in order to be successful in biomedical applications. Nanoparticles can easily enter the body due to...
