Abstract(s)
With the growing numbers of nanomaterials (NMs), there is a great demand for
rapid and reliable ways of testing NM safety—preferably using in vitro
approaches, to avoid the ethical dilemmas associated with animal research. Data
are needed for developing intelligent testing strategies for risk assessment of
NMs, based on grouping and read-across approaches. The adoption of high
throughput screening (HTS) and high content analysis (HCA) for NM toxicity
testing allows the testing of numerous materials at different concentrations and
on different types of cells, reduces the effect of inter-experimental variation, and
makes substantial savings in time and cost.
