The nanotoxicology revolution [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Toxicology, 2013
Although it has been suggested that nanoparticles should ‘be tested individually’ (Krug and Wick 2011), we see no evidence that nano-specific toxic mechanisms exist (review: Donaldson and Poland 2013a). For example, conventional particles induce toxicity via general mechanisms, such as oxidative stress and inflammation.
