Over the last decades, the production of nanoparticles (NPs) has been rapidly growing on the global scale. The data on biological activity of NPs is crucial in evaluating their safe use and in the development of new products containing NPs. Different tests are available for the purposes of determining interactions between NPs and biological systems. In this study, a modified Ellman’s method, adapted to work with microtiter plate, was used. This study aims to evaluate the biological reactivity of 10 different titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles with different primary sizes, crystallinity and different coatings. Biological reactivity was assessed by testing their adsorption to acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and to inhibit its activity. It was assumed that the tested particles inhibit AChE depending on physiochemical properties of particles, with crucial importance of their crystal structure. It was also assumed that a higher NP adsorption to AChE and a formation of so-called corona have no direct correlation to stronger AChE inhibition. TiO2 particles sized between 5 and 100 nm showed the highest rate of inhibition and adsorption to AChE, whereas the particles with size between 100 and 500 nm showed a lower rate of both. In our study the crystallinity of TiO2 particles did not have a significant effect on their ability to inhibit and adsorb AChE. Observed NP inhibition and adsorption to AChE was dependant on NP concentration. We observed higher NP effect on inhibition than on adsorption.
