| Sumario: | Biomaterials have occupied a prominent place in regenerative procedures to restore human health. Moreover, there is a greater need in understanding, analyzing and establishing their toxicity profile. These, when made into nano-sized constructions called nanostructured biomaterials, their regenerative potential is enhanced, which could influence their toxicity nature. This chapter intends to give comprehensive information on their nanotoxicology pathways at the cellular level, their entry pathways into the human body, and their potential consequences on human health. It clearly explains the cytocompatibility and biocompatibility of various nanostructured biomaterials for potential human health applications like drug delivery and tissue engineering. A detailed overview of various in vitro and in vivo evaluation methods of biocompatibility of nanomaterials are outlined in this chapter that researchers should address as they move forward in developing new systems for the field of regeneration. |
