is their advanced drug load that they can carry [2]. However, due to the nature of its synthesis, a
potential source of toxicity may be the presence of excipients on the nanoparticle [2]. In addition,
some surfactants dissociate from the nanoparticle during sterilization due to the high temperatures,
another potential source of toxicity; there is no dissociation of surfactants at body temperature [2].
