A poor applicability of classic 2D descriptors for representation of metal oxide nanoparticles is briefly discussed. The combination of 1D descriptors with previously calculated size-dependent descriptors is utilized to represent the structural features of nanoparticles in QSAR modeling. For this purpose, descriptors based on the fundamental characteristics of atoms (nuclear charge, oxidation level, electronegativity, ionic radius, ionic refraction etc.) were combined with those derived from structural formula (doublets –A2, AB, …; triplets – A3, A2B, ABC, … etc.) and “liquid drop model” derived size-dependent parameters. Nano-QSAR models are developed for cytotoxicity of metal oxide nanoparticles against E. coli and HaCaT cells. Two developed nano-QSAR models are discussed in terms of cluster analysis. |
