High-Performance Nanoparticle-Mediated Surfaces for Bio-medical Applications

Abstract

CONCLUSIONS Scalability: could reduce produce cost of nanomaterials for widespread application • Nanomaterials can be produced on macro-scale supports, i.e. metal filters, textile, via solution chemistries • Applications: • Antimicrobial and antiviral applications • Capturing contaminants from aqueous environments • Biocompatibility and Toxicity: safety & long-term effects • Airborne Release Fraction and Respirable Fraction must be considered when moieties released in the atmosphere • Evidence for Bioavailability of Au Nanoparticles from Soil and Biodistribution within Earthworms
