How do Nanoparticles Interact with Biological Systems?
Nanoparticles can interact with biological systems in several ways, including cellular uptake, oxidative stress induction, and protein corona formation. Their high surface area-to-volume ratio enhances reactivity, potentially leading to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can damage cells. Additionally, nanoparticles can bind to proteins, altering their function and triggering immune responses.
