Size and surface charge significantly influence the toxicity of silica and dendritic nanoparticles.

Abstract:

:The influence of size, surface charge and surface functionality of poly(amido amine) dendrimers and silica nanoparticles (SNPs) on their toxicity was studied in immunocompetent mice. After systematic characterization of nanoparticles, they were administered to CD-1 (caesarean derived-1) mice to evaluate acute toxicity. A distinct trend in nanotoxicity based on surface charge and functional group was observed with dendrimers regardless of their size. Amine-terminated dendrimers were fatal at doses >10 mg/kg causing haematological complications such as disseminated intravascular coagulation-like manifestations whereas carboxyl- and hydroxyl-terminated dendrimers of similar sizes were tolerated at 50-fold higher doses. In contrast, larger SNPs were less tolerated than smaller SNPs irrespective of their surface functionality. These findings have important implications in the use of these nanoparticles for various biomedical applications.
