There has also been growing concern with the increasing release of nano particles to the environment, due to its wide-spread incorporation in consumer products (Bauer et al., 2008). The possible use of nanoparticles as substitutes for toxics materials in manufacturing holds great promise, but also many risks (Ellenbecker and Tsai, 2011). Indeed, there is urgent need for a major increase in nanomaterial risk research, as well as the development of adequate regulatory policies on nanomaterial risk management (Walsh et al., 2008). Earlier studies have found that nanoparticles can cause DNA damages in mammalian cells through the production of reactive oxidation species
