Nanoparticles Skin Exposure and Absorption: Differences between Children and Adults
Journal Title: Advances in Clinical Toxicology - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) are widespread in many fields of everyday life. Materials in nano-size range (below 100 nm) acquire interesting new properties due to the higher surface per mass ratio, which are exploited by industries to produce highly specialised low-volume technical applications, targeted medical treatments and anti-cut or antibacterial textiles, to cite only some uses.
