Frontiers in Nanotoxicology

Dear Colleagues,

Nanotoxicology is an arising discipline interested in characterizing and categorizing the adverse effects induced by nanomaterials for determining relationships of structure and function between nanoparticles and toxicity. The application of nanotechnology is one of the fastest growing areas of materials science, but the applied research in nanotechnology is ahead of nanotoxicological research. However, the safety assessment should be carried out in parallel with the development of new materials (safe-by-design).

This Special Issue will combine scientific articles and reviews devoted to such problems of nanotoxicology as the biological effects of both widely known and emerging nanomaterials (for example, 2D transition metal chalcogenides, MXenes, perovskites, etc.), the effects of nanoparticle size, geometry and surface properties on toxicity and dose-response relationships, cell and molecular mechanisms of nanotoxicity, environmental toxicology of nanomaterials, research of nano-bio interfaces, new research methods for nanotoxicology and nanomedicine, predictive and personalized nanotoxicology. Works based on an interdisciplinary approach regarding new biomedical nanomaterials are also welcomed.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Nanomaterials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
