Nano, Nanomaterial, Nanotechnology
Nano is 10-9. Nanotechnology is the understanding and control of matter at dimensions of roughly 1 to 100 nanometers, where unique phenomena enable novel applications.
Nanomaterials are 1-100 nm in at least one dimension

Nanotoxicology is in its Infancy
Do the unique material properties of nanomaterials equate to unique biological properties as well?
Which of these properties are responsible for the biological effects?
Are the effects limited by the traditional defintion of nanomaterial (1-100 nm)?
Who should be studying the biocompatibility or toxicity of these new materials?
What studies should be done?
Where do we obtain high quality materials for testing?

Major Challenges for Dose-Response Assessment
What is dose?Size, shape, particle number, agglomeration state, surface chemistry, reactivity, surface area? Dose rate is also important.Do researches have all the tools necessary to measure these characteristics?
What is dose for in vitro studies?67% of published NM toxicity studies use in vitro systems.Mass concentrations are typically reported.Cannot be compared to doses for in vivo studies.How do you measure NM characteristics in liquid systems?
How do you extrapolate animal study doses to human dosesThis extrapolation is required for all risk assessments based on animal studies
![Page 9: Betraying Paracelsus, Ignoring Newton: A Flaw in the Nanotoxicology Paradigm Justin Teeguarden, PHD, DABT [Paul Hinderliter, Joel Pounds, Brian Thrall,,](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110210/56649e7b5503460f94b7cdbd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Cell Culture is a Standard Tool for Mechanistic Work and Hazard
ScreeningThe paradigm for chemicals is being used without consideration of the unique kinetic differences between chemicals and particles in solution:
Response is considered a function of the nominal media mass or surface area concentration (cm2/ml, µg/ml)
Expose cells to selected concentrations of suspended
particles
Report dose-response on a nominal media
concentration basis
![Page 10: Betraying Paracelsus, Ignoring Newton: A Flaw in the Nanotoxicology Paradigm Justin Teeguarden, PHD, DABT [Paul Hinderliter, Joel Pounds, Brian Thrall,,](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110210/56649e7b5503460f94b7cdbd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Dosimetry for Particles is Important!
Response is proportional to concentration at the target site!
![Page 11: Betraying Paracelsus, Ignoring Newton: A Flaw in the Nanotoxicology Paradigm Justin Teeguarden, PHD, DABT [Paul Hinderliter, Joel Pounds, Brian Thrall,,](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110210/56649e7b5503460f94b7cdbd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
So What’s the Problem?
In solution, particles settle and diffuse at rates which depend on:
SizeDensityShapeAgglomeration state
Surface area changes with sizeNumber concentrations change with sizeWhile nominal media concentrations stay the same across density and size, DELIVERY RATES DO NOT!

Conclusions
In vitro, untested assumptions and a flawed paradigm are the norm Biologically and kinetically relevant measures of dose are not being used, imperiling interpretation of many studies..
What should the future be?Research to improve our understanding of kinetics and dosimetry in vitro is essential, but not often appreciatedDirect measures of particle behavior in solutionDirect measures of cellular particle doseComputational models of delivery
These studies will support interpretation as well as extrapolation (NRC Vision for Toxicology)

What is the Future of Nanomaterial Dosimetry at PNNL?
Establish a Paradigm for Rapid Development of Biokinetic Models From In Vitro Kinetics and Cellular Uptake Data
Complete development of predictive models of in vitro kinetics and cellular uptake (Macrophages, and other elements of the RES system)
Correlate material properties and serum protein binding to rates of uptake in tissues of the RES system
Scale models of cellular uptake to full tissues/in vivo and integrate within our PBPK models
Test and revise predictive models of in vivo dosimetry
This is best accomplished as one element of an integrated program in nanomaterial biocompatibility.

Partial differential equations representing Navier-Stokes settling and Fickian diffusion are combined to form a single partial differential equation describing macroscopic particle transport. The solution to this equation is the basis for the computational model of nanoparticle solution dynamics and dosimetry in vitro (NanoDose). The model is written in MatLab. Parameters: n, number-density of particles at place x and time t; t, time; x, vertical distance from bottom of well; R, gas constant; T, temperature; N, Avogadro’s number; m, viscosity of liquid, a particle radius; g, gravitational acceleration; d, effective particle density (density of particle – liquid density). From Mason and Weaver (1924).
