Common Nanomaterials Linked to Changes in Developing Brain Cells

DAEJEON, Jan. 9 (Korea Bizwire) — Researchers in South Korea have found that silica nanoparticles—widely used in cosmetics and industrial materials—may subtly alter early brain development, even without causing immediate or visible damage, raising new questions about the safety of everyday nanomaterials. The study, released Thursday by the Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology, used [...]
