Abstract

Throughout the last years, a huge variety of different nanoparticle formulations have been studied with the aim to assess their harmlessness in biological systems, to elucidate how the morphological features govern their impact on cells, and to develop cell labeling strategies for biomedical purposes. Most of such studies are based on the use of various cell viability assays. Interestingly, different results – even contradictory ones – have been observed between the groups, even though the respective nanoparticle formulations were more or less similar. One possible reason for such discrepancies is the occurrence of specific interactions between the nanoparticles and the ingredients of the respective cell viability assays. A similar situation can be encountered when researchers investigate the labeling of (stem) cells for biomedical purposes. Hereto, different labeling efficiencies were observed with the corresponding effects on cell viability and functionality. Therefore, the present review focuses on potential pitfalls and artifacts associated with the cytotoxicity evaluation of nanomaterials.
