Description

This book examines the toxicological effects of nanoparticle exposure in industrial environments. It covers the unique properties of nanoparticles, their behavior in biological systems, and potential health hazards such as respiratory and cardiovascular issues. The book emphasizes risk assessment, exposure control, and safety protocols to protect workers from nanotoxicity. Suitable for nanotoxicologists and industrial safety professionals, it advances understanding of nanoparticle risks in the workplace.

Author(s) Bio

Grace Robbins explores the toxicological implications of nanoparticle exposure in industrial settings, focusing on their potential health and environmental risks. Her research investigates how nanoparticles used in manufacturing processes can be inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin, leading to respiratory, cardiovascular, and cellular damage. Grace has developed methods for detecting and quantifying nanoparticle concentrations in workplace environments and assessing their toxicological effects. She has published numerous studies on the safety and regulatory challenges associated with nanomaterials in industries such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, and textiles. As an editor, Grace offers guidelines for toxicologists and industrial safety professionals to evaluate and mitigate nanoparticle exposure risks, promoting safe nanotechnology practices through informed toxicological strategies.
