While they offer new technological opportunities, there is also the potential for adverse impact, in particular through possible toxicity. In this review, we discuss the current state of the art in the experimental characterisation of nanoparticle-membrane interactions relevant to the prediction of toxicity arising from disruption of biological systems. One key point of discussion is the urgent need for more quantitative studies of nano-bio interactions in experimental models of lipid system that mimic in vivo membranes. date: 2017-12-22 date_type: published official_url: http://doi.org/10.1080/17458080.2017.1413253 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Article in Press verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1522979 doi: 10.1080/17458080.2017.1413253 lyricists_name: Gaisford, Simon lyricists_id: SGAIS88 actors_name: Gaisford, Simon actors_name: Harris, Jean actors_id: SGAIS88 actors_id: JAHAR68 actors_role: owner actors_role: impersonator full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Experimental Nanoscience volume: 13 number: 1 pagerange: 62-81 issn: 1745-8099 citation: Contini, C; Schneemilch, M; Gaisford, S; Quirke, N; (2017) Nanoparticle–membrane interactions.
