Characterization and Zebrafish - based Screening of Commercially Available AI203 for Biomedical Applications, 12/2023, 05/2024, In order to evaluate the toxicity and biocompatibility of commercially available aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles, I conducted study using zebrafish embryos. Taking into account their distinct physicochemical characteristics, our study sought to ascertain their appropriateness for biomedical applications. In order to determine the lethal concentration 50 (LC50), evaluate developmental toxicity, and pinpoint potential teratogenic consequences, we subjected the embryos to various concentrations of Al2O3 nanoparticles. Our research showed concentration-dependent toxicity, with larger doses leading to notable death and developmental defects. Morphological abnormalities and oxidative stress were induced even at sub-lethal levels. Although aluminum oxide nanoparticles have great potential in biomedicine, more thorough biocompatibility studies are required due to the critical need to carefully evaluate their safety profile before utilizing them in clinical settings.
