|
Scope: | This document collates information regarding the systems available for exposure and assessment of nano-objects and their aggregates and agglomerates (NOAA) for in vitro air exposure studies. It provides an overview of the various exposure systems and in vitro cell systems used to perform in vitro studies that simulate an inhalation toxicology study design.

Goal or Need: | Inhalation is one of the prominent routes by which humans can come in contact with engineered nanomaterials (ENMs). Due to the considerable time, cost, and animal numbers required to conduct traditional in vivo toxicity tests, there is much interest in developing human-relevant in vitro strategies specific to nanomaterials.
