The production and use of nanoparticles is growing rapidly due to the unique physical and chemical properties associated with their nano-size and large surface area. As the field of nanotechnology vastly expands, many questions involving the effects of nanomaterials on the environment as well as human health have been raised. The objective of this book is to address the growing concern of nanoparticle pulmonary toxicity. Not until the recent increase in utilization of nanoparticles in industry, have the dangers of pulmonary exposure to nanoparticles become a major concern. Analyzes of the...
