While nanoparticles (NPs) and nanodevices are increasingly used in nanomedince, an often neglected aspect is the possible consequence of the protein corona that forms on the NP surface upon contact with biological fluids. The corona might significantly affect both the targeting and the delivery of a NP, hence influencing its toxicity and fate.

Abstract
While nanoparticles (NPs) and nanodevices are increasingly used in nanomedince, an often neglected aspect is the possible consequence of the protein corona that forms on the NP surface upon contact with biological fluids. The corona might significantly affect both the targeting and the delivery of a NP, hence influencing its toxicity and fate.
