Foreword
Over the past 20 years nanotechnology has been considered as the tech-
nology of the 21st century. A huge amount of development has occurred
during this period, not only of new applications and products already on the
market, but also of possibilities that may become available within the next
10 to 15 years. Besides innovation and market demands, products are in-
creasingly directly related to the use or implementation of nanomaterials.
The manufacturing of nanomaterials and the reinforcement of products by
the integration of nanomaterials leads directly to the interaction of nano-
materials with humans and the environment. With this increasing number
of scenarios for human exposure to the newly synthesized nanomaterials,
the evaluation of possible adverse effects of such materials is of utmost
importance. This is the reason for a flood of publications on the newly
created discipline of nanotoxicology, which was named as such in 2004 for
.
the first time. More than 25 000 publications have increased the knowledge
of the biological effects of nanomaterials in various species. However, we
have also realized that many such studies were undertaken in a misleading
sense as most of them have been mechanistic studies, but authors as well as
readers have often used them as toxicological studies. Moreover, as har-
monized test protocols and adapted OECD guidelines have not been avail-
able for nanomaterials in the past 15 years, many results are not reliable and
difficult to interpret and repeat. Therefore, we have to take up the challenge
of establishing such protocols and harmonize methods for a better tox-
icological research approach to nanomaterials in the near future.
But this is not the only challenge. Toxicology itself is being orientated into
a new direction. Animal testing is more and more under suspicion to deliver
false-positive or false-negative results, the existing in vitro methods, on the
other hand, also have many restrictions or shortcomings. Thus, the

The initial chapters of the book describe the protocols for the chemical
synthesis of nanoparticles for a range of applications including usage in
biomedicine. The subsequent chapters describe the in vitro and in vivo
protocols for toxicity assessment of engineered nanomaterials, develop-

art nanomaterial toxicology facility at CSIR-IITR as well as at the Institute of
Life Sciences. Professor Dhawan has won several honours and awards in-
cluding the INSA Young Scientist Medal in 1994, CSIR Young Scientist Award
in 1999, the Shakuntala Amir Chand Prize of ICMR in 2002, and the Vigyan
Ratna from the Council of Science and Technology, UP in 2011. His work in
the area of nanomaterial toxicology has won him international accolades
as well, and he was awarded two Indo-UK projects under the prestigious
UK-IERI programme. He was also awarded two European Union Projects
under the FP7 and New INDIGO programmes. He founded the Indian
Nanoscience Society in 2007. In recognition of his work he has been elected
a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, UK; the National Academy of
Sciences, India; The Academy of Toxicological Sciences, USA; The Academy

CNTs absorb formazan molecules and protect them from being metabolized
by cells.21 Under such circumstances, the decreased colour formation occurs
due to the direct effect of CNTs on the MTT dye rather than a decrease in the
number of living cells, thus leading to the false interpretation of a cytotoxic
effect. Aluminium NPs also demonstrate a strong interaction with MTT dye
resulting in significant misinterpretation of associated cytotoxicity.22
in assay outcomes. Some ENMs are highly catalytically active, thus may
alter the intrinsic properties of assay reagents. Recently, experiments on
copper-containing compounds, such as CuCl2, CuSO4 and Cu powder,
showed interactions with LDH assay components.25 It was found that copper-
containing compounds incubated with LDH showed inhibition of LDH
calibrator detection depending on Cu salt dose. Recently, Kroll et al.26 reported
that inhibition of the LDH assay in the presence of fine-sized ZnO NMs was
dependent on the composition more than the size or surface. Han et al.,27
found Ag NPs (B35 nm) deactivate LDH due to interaction of synthesis
reagents with LDH whereas, TiO2 NPs (25 nm) were also found to interfere
with the LDH assay due to adsorption of LDH molecules on the surface.27
Si na comedia ou sainete,
Virdes que um Dom fidalgote
Lhe dá no seu camarote
A chicara do sorvete;
Havei dó do coitadete,
Pois numa chicara só
Seu dinheiro bebe em pó,
Que o senhor, cousa é sabida,
Lhe dá a chupar a bebida,
Para chupa-lo noutra hora.
Entendeis-me agora?
Não reputeis por favor,
Nem tenhais por maravilha
Vê-lo jogar a espadilha
Co’o marquez, co’o grão senhor;
Porque como é perdedor
E mofino adredemente,
E faz um sangue excellente
A qualquer dos ganhadores,
Qualquer d’aquelles senhores
Por fidalgo egual o afóra.

A cidade me provoca
Com virtudes tão commuas,
Ha tantas cruzes nas ruas,
Quantas eu faço na boca:
Os diabos a seu centro
Foi cada um por seu cabo,
Nas ruas não ha um diabo,
Ha-os de portas a dentro.
As damas de toda côr,
Como tão pobre me veem,
As mais lástima me têm,
As menos me têm amor:
O que me têm admirado
É fecharem-me o poleiro
Logo acabado o dinheiro:
Deviam ter-m’o contado.

Que inda fede aos seus beirames,
