Significance of particle size and charge capacity in TiO2 nanoparticle-lipid interactions

Abstract: HypothesisThe activity of submicron sized titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) particles towards biomembrane models is coupled to their charge carrying capacity and their primary particle size. Experiments Electrochemical methods using a phospholipid layer on a mercury (Hg) supported membrane model have been used to determine the phospholipid monolayer activity of TiO 2 as an indicator of biomembrane activity. The particles were characterised for size by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)… Show more

“…13,14,15 13 Although this sensing device was previously used to screen a number of membrane active 14 compounds from toxins to drugs, the current work aimed to reinforce the sensing system for food 15 ingredients for the first time. A successful application of such a sensing system can rapidly 16 establish a structure activity relationship of a variety of food compounds with membranes.…”

“…However, toxicity hazards associated with nanomaterials have been widely reported, with growing research in the field of nanotoxicology emphasising the need for screening techniques to characterise nanomaterial hazards [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. As the applications for engineered nanomaterials continues to grow, high-throughput, in vitro screening solutions are essential to accelerate the process of evaluating the toxicity of novel engineered nanomaterials and to meet the demand for hazard identification [13,14].…”

“…Engineered nanomaterials can interact with cell membranes through adsorption onto the membrane, penetration through the membrane and endocytosis [17][18][19][20][21]. The understanding of nanomaterial cytotoxicity is challenging due to the complexity of cell membranes and the wide range of nanomaterial parameters, such as particle size, material and shape, that can influence the mechanisms of membrane interaction [5,7,10,11,17,21]. Cell-based in vitro toxicity assays are typically employed for the assessment of nanomaterial cytotoxicity, which are adapted for high-throughput screening through the use of high quantity multi-well plate platforms [22][23][24].…”
