Nanotoxicology invites contributions addressing research relating to the potential for human and environmental exposure| hazard and risk associated with the use and development of nano-structured materials. In this context| the term nano-structured materials has a broad definition| including ‘materials with at least one dimension in the nanometer size range’. These nanomaterials range from nanoparticles and nanomedicines| to nano-surfaces of larger materials and composite materials. The range of nanomaterials in use and under development is extremely diverse| so this journal includes a range of materials generated for purposeful delivery into the body (food| medicines| diagnostics and prosthetics)| to consumer products (e.g. paints| cosmetics| electronics and clothing)| and particles designed for environmental applications (e.g. remediation). It is the nano-size range if these materials which unifies them and defines the scope of Nanotoxicology . While the term ‘toxicology’ indicates risk| the journal Nanotoxicology also aims to encompass studies that enhance safety during the production| use and disposal of nanomaterials. Well-controlled studies demonstrating a lack of exposure| hazard or risk associated with nanomaterials| or studies aiming to improve biocompatibility are welcomed and encouraged| as such studies will lead to an advancement of nanotechnology. Furthermore| many nanoparticles are developed with the intention to improve human health (e.g. antimicrobial agents)| and again| such articles are encouraged. In order to promote quality| Nanotoxicology will prioritise publications that have demonstrated characterisation of the nanomaterials investigated.
