| Abstract |
"The book focuses on causes and prevention of environmental toxicity induced by various nanomaterials. This edited work contains five sections describing the basic principles, trends, challenges and future directions of nanoecotoxicity. The book introduces nanoecotoxicity, describes various factors affecting toxicity of nanomaterials, discusses various factors that can impart nanoecotoxicity, reviews various studies in the area of nanoecotoxicity evaluation, and describes the safety and risk assessment of nanomaterials. In addition chapters will discuss strategies for mitigating nanoecotoxicity"-- Provided by publisher. |
