Characterization of the size, shape, and state of dispersion of nanoparticles for toxicological studies
Abstract
This paper describes the issues relating to the measurement of nanoparticle size, shape and dispersion when evaluating the toxicity of nanoparticles. Complete characterization of these materials includes much more than size, size distribution and shape; nonetheless, these attributes are usually the essential foundation. The measurement of particle size, particularly at scales of 100 nm or less, can be challenging under the best of conditions. Measurements that are routine in the laboratory setting become even more difficult when made under the physiological conditions relevant to toxicity studies, where the environment of the particles can be quite complex. Passive and active cellular responses, as well as the presence of a variety of nano-scale biological structures, often complicate the collection and interpretation of size and shape data. In this paper, we highlight several of the common issues faced when characterizing nanoparticles for toxicity testing and suggest general protocols to address these problems.

“For example, well established models have been developed for predicting where in the lung particulates of a given aerodynamic diameter are deposited (ICRP 1994; Heyder 2004; Zhang et al. 2005); (b) Size is a factor in the ability of the body to clear foreign particles (Renwick et al.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
