Background: Despite the wide range of applications, there is a serious lack of information on the impact of the nanoparticles on human health and the environment. The present study was done to determine the range of dangerous concentrations of iron oxide nanoparticle and their effects on mouse embryonic stem cells. Methods: Iron oxide nanoparticles with less than 20 nanometers diameter were en...

Background: Investigation of toxicity of silver nanoparticle, especxially blood toxicity, is necessary because this nanoparticle is used a lot in diffrerent parts of life and invironment. The aime of this is evaluation the effects of silver nanoparticles with different concentrations on blood cells pregnant Wistar rats. Materials and Methods: In this case control study, 30 pregnant rat wer...

An analysis of peristaltic flow of a couple-stress fluid, with immersed nanoparticles, in an asymmetric channel having flexible walls is presented in this paper. General boundary conditions on velocity, temperature and concentration of nanoparticles are used for the analysis. Thermophoresis and Brownian diffusion effects govern the motion of nanoparticles. Long wave length approximation and low...

A silver nanoparticle-modified evanescent field optical fiber sensor based on a MEMS microchannel chip has been successfully fabricated. Experimental results show that the sensor response decreases linearly with increasing concentration of analyte. Over a range of methylene blue concentrations from 0 to 0.4 μmol/mL, the sensor response is linear (R = 0.9496). A concentration variation of 0.1 μm...

nowadays, growing interest in the application of nanotechnology in biomedical and biotechnological fields has opened a new avenue to explore the nanoparticles-biological system interaction. indeed, a clear gap is still in the cytotoxic effect of nps on the biological systems. for this purpose, the interaction of the silica oxide nanoparticles (sio2-np) with pc12 cell line, as a model of nervous...
