Esha Arooj, who was born on August 20, 2000, is a social worker and biotechnologist with excellent communication skills, analytical thinking, and leadership abilities. Esha Arooj, a well-known blogger and laboratory technician, began working at a young age. By employing molecular methods and putting her knowledge to use, she hopes to comprehend and manipulate living things.
She has extraordinary information on internet based introductions, research system, and virtual entertainment working. She also participates in laboratory experiments such as the synthesis of green nanoparticles using neem, the growth of bacteria with a high growth temperature, the isolation of bacteria (which degrade starch, glucose, produce pectinase, lipase, protease, and cellulase), cell counting with a hemocytometer, the plaque assay, and the cryopreservation and revival of cells.
Esha Arooj finished her FSC (pre-clinical) from Armed force Public School Sialkot and As of now in Lahore Post College. Esha Arooj is practicing her aims every day as she studies.
Esha Arooj's goal is to become a social worker and develop novel methods for diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease.

. Nanoparticles are particles with dimensions on
the nanoscale.
Cytotoxicity refers to the ability of a substance
to cause damage or death to cells.
cytotoxicity of nanoparticles can vary depending
on their specific properties
5. NANOPARTICLE INTERACTION WITH
RBC
5
Adsorption: Nanoparticles can adsorb onto the surface of RBCs.
Penetration: Some nanoparticles, particularly smaller ones, may be
able to penetrate the cell membrane and enter the interior of the
RBC.
Membrane disruption: Certain nanoparticles, especially those with
sharp edges or high surface reactivity, can cause membrane damage
or disruption when they come into contact with RBCs.
Cellular uptake: In some cases, RBCs may actively engulf
nanoparticles through endocytosis.
6. 6
Concentration: Higher concentrations of a toxic substance are
more likely to induce cell death than lower concentrations.
Exposure time: The duration of exposure to a toxic substance
can affect cytotoxicity.
Cell type: Some cells may be more resistant to certain toxins,
while others may be more susceptible.
Genetic factors: Some individuals may have genetic factors
that make them more or less sensitive to certain toxins.
FACTORS INFLUENCING CYTOTOXICITY
7. 7
Oxidative stress: Oxidative stress occurs when there is an
imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species
(ROS) and the cell's antioxidant defense mechanisms.
Enzyme inhibition: Some toxic agents can inhibit specific
enzymes present in RBCs, which are crucial for the cell's normal
functioning and survival.
Alteration of ion balance: RBCs rely on a delicate balance of
ions, particularly potassium (K+) and sodium (Na+), for their
proper functioning.
Hemoglobin modification: Hemoglobin is the protein responsible
for oxygen transport in RBCs.

Silver nanoparticles: exert cytotoxic effects on cells.
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles: high concentrations or
prolonged exposure to titanium dioxide nanoparticles can induce
cytotoxic effects.
Quantum dots: quantum dots composed of heavy metals like
cadmium or lead can be cytotoxic.
Metal oxide nanoparticles: metal oxide nanoparticles can
exhibit cytotoxic effects.

CONCLUSION
The conclusion regarding nanoparticle
toxicity on red blood cells (RBCs) depends
on the specific nanoparticles being
considered. It is important to note that
different types of nanoparticles can have
varying effects on RBCs, and the toxicity
can be influenced by factors such as
nanoparticle size, shape, surface coating,
concentration, and exposure duration.
