This paper aimed to clarify whether maternal inhalation of engineered nanoparticles (NP) may constitute a hazard to pregnancy and fetal development, primarily based on experimental animal studies of NP and air pollution particles. Overall, it is plau... Read More about A perspective on the developmental toxicity of inhaled nanoparticles.

Nanoparticle interactions with zinc and iron: Implications for toxicology and inflammation (2007)
Journal Article

Particulate air pollution (PM10) consists of a mixture of components, including nanoparticles and metals. Studies from our laboratory have demonstrated that transition metals can potentiate the ability of nanoparticles to induce lung inflammation and...
