Summary The advent of nanotechnology and its applications in fields such as nano materials and nano systems have led to an increased concern about the safety and compatibility of these systems with biological systems. This is particularly true because the main routes of nano materials contact are inhalation, dermal absorption, and ingestion. Biointeractions of Nanomaterials addresses these issues related to toxicity and safety of nano materials and nano systems. It covers the range of interactions in biological systems and presents various tools and methods used for evaluation, includ
