Nanoparticles play a significant role in various fields such as biomedical imaging and diagnostics [1-4], process control in semiconductor manufacturing [5], explosives [6], environmental monitoring and climate change [7, 8], and various other fields. Inhalation of ultrafine particulates in air has been shown to have adverse effects, such as inflammation of lungs or pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases [9, 10]. Nano-sized biological agents and pathogens such as viruses are known to be responsible for a wide variety of human diseases such as flu, AIDS and herpes, and have been used as biowarfare agents [11, 12]. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
