Nanotoxicology: Impacts on the Environment examines the environmental implications of nanomaterials used in various industries. It covers the fate, transport, and toxic effects of nanoparticles on ecosystems, aquatic life, and soil organisms. The book emphasizes the assessment of environmental risks posed by nanomaterials and the development of guidelines for their safe use and disposal. Suitable for nanotoxicologists and environmental scientists, it advances the understanding of nanomaterial impacts on environmental health.
Nash Curry specializes in nanotoxicology, investigating the environmental impacts of nanoparticles and nanomaterials used in various industries. His research focuses on understanding how nanoparticles interact with ecosystems, wildlife, and human health, assessing their potential toxicity and long-term effects. Nash has developed methodologies for detecting and quantifying nanoparticles in environmental matrices, such as water and soil. He has published extensively on the safe design and application of nanomaterials to minimize ecological and health risks. As an editor, Nash provides guidelines for toxicologists and nanotechnologists to evaluate and mitigate the environmental impacts of nanomaterials, promoting sustainable and safe nanotechnology practices through informed toxicological assessments.
