There is an urgent need to investigate the mechanisms of action of NMs and to develop testing strategies to assess potential environmental and human hazard. Our study has shown that metal nanoparticles such as iron oxide may induce genotoxic effect. It was inferred that coating and surface properties influence NPs cytotoxicity and genotoxicity.
