Specifics of the methodological approach to the study of nanoparticle impact on human health in the production of non-metallic nanomaterials for construction purposes

Abstract

Minerals samples of mixed-genesis rocks in a finely dispersed state were obtained and studied, namely sand deposit (Kholmogory district) and basalt (Myandukha deposit, Plesetsk district) in Arkhangelsk region. The paper provides the chemical composition data used to calculate the specific mass atomization energy of rocks. The energy parameters of the micro and nano systems of the rock samples - free surface energy and surface activity - were calculated. For toxicological evaluation of the materials obtained, next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to perform metagenomic analysis which allowed determining the species diversity of microorganisms in the samples under study. It was shown that the sequencing method and metagenomic analysis are applicable and provide good reproducibility for the analysis of the toxicological properties of selected rock samples. The correlation of the surface activity of finely dispersed rock systems and the species diversity of cultivated microorganisms on the raw material was observed.
