Abstract(s)
Nanotechnology industry is progressing with prospects of substantial
benefits to economics and science. Superparamagnetic iron
oxide nanoparticles (ION) have been showing excellent magnetic
properties, biocompatibility and biodegradability, broadening their
potential applications and importance in the biomedical field.
Nevertheless, there are increasing concerns as to the potential
adverse effects on human health and environment and, currently,
data on the effects of ION on the human nervous system are
controversial.
