Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a continuation of a previously successful Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Toxicity of Nanoparticles in Organisms”, and is hosted by the same Guest Editor.
The present issue welcomes authors and potential contributors to submit original articles or review papers dedicated to recent fundamental and applicative research into biocompatibility testing of nanomaterials. We are particularly interested in efforts to investigate the impact of nanoparticles on different biological experimental settings in vitro and in vivo, including toxicity aspects; the possibility of the modulation of toxicity through “green synthesis”; or the design of complex nanoplatforms suitable for biomedical applications.
This Special Issue will cover topics that include, but are not limited to, the following: development of biologically active nanostructured compounds from natural or synthetic sources, green synthesis, metallic nanoparticles, nano-alloys, graphene, nanotubes, composite nanomaterials, cytotoxicity, systemic toxicity, the role of nanoparticles in biological processes, nanoplatforms in theranostic approaches, and applications of nanomaterials in medicine.
Dr. Ioana Bâldea

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.
