Abstract

Nanotechnology, which includes many potential applications, is described as the technology of the future and the industrial revolution of the 21st century. The effect of nanotechnology is particularly evident in nanomaterials (NMs) used for chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products. Properties such as nanoscale size, large surface area, and surface activity make NMs attractive for many applications. It is estimated that more than 1600 nanoscale products are on the market today and that by 2020, more than six million employees will be exposed to engineered nanoparticles (NPs). Due to the observed changes in the physical, chemical, and toxicological properties of the material in parallel with the decreasing particle size, it is predicted that NPs may cause adverse effects on biological systems. However, due to the relative novelty of nanotechnology, there is a lack of knowledge about the ways humans are exposed to NPs and the possible adverse health effects of NPs. Knowledge of the effects of longterm exposure to engineered NPs on human health is based on in vitro studies, in vivo animal studies, and a limited number of human exposure studies. In our country, there are no studies in this field. A better understanding of the health effects of NPs, which is expected to have increased production in our country soon, is a scientific necessity to be dealt with for the safe use of NMs. Therefore, it is aimed to evaluate the effects of NPs on human health in the light of current information and to draw attention to the dangers that may develop.

Özet

Pek çok potansiyel uygulama içeren nanoteknoloji, geleceğin teknolojisi ve 21. yüzyılın endüstriyel devrimi olarak nitelenmektedir. Nanoteknolojinin etkisi özellikle kimyasallar, ilaç ve kişisel bakım ürünleri için kullanılan nanomalzemelerde görülmektedir. Nano-ölçekli boyutu, geniş yüzey alanı ve yüzey aktivitesi gibi özellikler nanomalzemeleri çok fazla uygulama için ilgi çekici kılar. Günümüzde 1600’den fazla nanoboyutlu ürünün piyasada bulunduğu ve 2020 yılına kadar altı milyondan fazla çalışanın mühendislik ürünü nanopartiküllere maruz kalacağı tahmin edilmektedir. Küçülen parçacık boyutuyla paralel olarak malzemenin fiziksel, kimyasal ve toksikolojik özelliklerinde gözlenen değişiklikler nedeniyle nanopartiküllerin, biyolojik sistemler üzerine olumsuz etkilere neden olabileceği öngörülmektedir. Bununla birlikte, nanoteknolojinin göreli yeniliği nedeniyle, insanların nanopartiküllere maruziyet yolları ve nanopartiküllerin olası olumsuz sağlık etkileri hakkında bilgi eksikliği vardır. Mühendislik ürünü nanopartiküllere uzun süreli maruziyetin, insan sağlığı üzerine etkileri hakkındaki bilgi birikimi, in vitro çalışmalar, in vivo hayvan çalışmaları ve sınırlı sayıdaki insan maruziyet çalışmalarına dayanmaktadır. Ülkemizde ise bu alanda yapılmış çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Yakın zamanda ülkemizde de üretim artışı beklenen nanopartiküllerin sağlık etkilerinin daha iyi anlaşılması, nanomalzemelerin güvenli kullanımı için, ele alınması gereken bilimsel bir zorunluluktur. Bu nedenle makalede güncel bilgiler ışığında nanopartiküllerin insan sağlığı üzerine etkilerinin değerlendirilmesi ve böylece gelişebilecek tehlikelere dikkat çekmek amaçlanmıştır.
