Micronucleus induction by low doses of X-rays in Vicia faba root tips [PDF]
, 1987 Studies on the micronucleus test in Vicia faba root tips (VM test) were carried out in order to estimate the effects at low doses of X-rays (1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 R). The control value of micronucleus frequency is about 0.44/1000 cells.

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ashwagandha, an adaptogen, is an important herb of Ayurveda used as a Rasayana for its various health benefits. This prospective, multi‐center, observational clinical study evaluates the safety (clinical and laboratory) of a standardized Ashwagandha Root Extract (ARE) on long‐term administration over 12 months. Male and female adults (N = 191)

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To break electromagnetic wave absorption (EMA) tech's single‐attenuation bottleneck, enhancing multi‐wave absorption synergy in composites is key for microstructure design. This study uses mesoporous hollow carbon spheres to make metal nanospheres with cobalt, iron, and nickel nanoparticles, then encapsulates them via electrospinning into a ...

Small Science, EarlyView.Fluorescent dye labeling enables nanoparticle imaging but may subtly alter their surface chemistry and biological behavior. This study compares dye‐labeled and unlabeled cerium oxide nanozymes, revealing changes in cellular uptake kinetics without affecting their final intracellular fate. Combined fluorescence and label‐free electron microscopy imaging

The micronucleus test—most widely used in vivo genotoxicity test— [PDF]
Genes and Environment, 2016 Genotoxicity is commonly evaluated during the chemical safety assessment together with other toxicological endpoints. The micronucleus test is always included in many genotoxic test guidelines for long time in many classes of chemicals, e.g., pharmaceutical chemicals, agricultural chemicals, food additives.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The environmental hazards of sunscreens are discussed worldwide. However, there are few ecotoxicological studies on these compounds alone for edaphic organisms, and none for their mixtures. Avobenzone (1 and 10 ng/L), octocrylene (10 and 100 μg/L), and oxybenzone (2 and 20 μg/L), alone and in binary combinations (between the lowest and the ...

Genotoxicity evaluation of alpha-linolenic acid-diacylglycerol oil
Toxicology Reports, 2016 The alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)-diacylglycerol (DAG) oil is an edible oil enriched with DAG (>80%) and ALA (>50%). Although DAG oil, which mainly consists of oleic and linoleic acids has no genotoxic concerns, the fatty acid composition could affect the ...

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Titanium dioxide (TiO2), used as a food additive (labeled E171 in Europe), was withdrawn from the European market in 2022. The E171 toxicity mechanism involves its uptake, oxidative stress, DNA damage, and inflammation. It has been hypothesized that the TiO2 accumulation nanoparticles (NPs) or E171 triggers tissue damage, and some studies have

Ground and surface water for drinking: a laboratory study on genotoxicity using plant tests
Journal of Public Health Research, 2012 Surface waters are increasingly utilized for drinking water because groundwater sources are often polluted. Several monitoring studies have detected the presence of mutagenicity in drinking water, especially from surface sources due to the reaction of ...
