New training video available! A simple guide on how to determine the effective density of ENMs

In a training, RiskGONE brings a simple and efficient guidance on how to determine the effective density of engineered nanomaterials – ENMs using volumetric centrifugation method (VCM).

In cellular assays, ENMs can form agglomerates in presence of cell culture media which change the size and the effective density of nanoparticles. This agglomeration can impact the biological effects of ENMs. This is why it is crucial to determine the effective density of ENMs to accurately estimate the delivered dose to cells.
