Abstract The incorporation of nanomaterials (NMs) in consumer products has proven to be highly valuable many sectors. Unfortunately, however, the same nano specific physicochemical properties, which make these material attractive, might also contribute hazards for people exposed materials. properties NMs will impact their interaction with biological surroundings and influence fate potential adverse effects such as genotoxicity. Due large expanding number produced, availability different...
Background Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are emerging pollutants of concern with ubiquitous presence in global ecosystems. MNPs pose potential implications for human health; however, the health impacts MNP exposures not yet understood. Recent evidence suggests that can cross placental barrier, underlying urgent need to understand their impact on reproductive development. Objective The Actionable eUropean ROadmap early-life Risk Assessment micro- (AURORA) project will investigate biological...
