Applied Nanotoxicology [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Toxicology, 2016
Nanomaterials, including nanoparticles and nanoobjects, are being incorporated into everyday products at an increasing rate. These products include consumer products of interest to toxicologists such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, food packaging, household products, and so on. The manufacturing of products containing or utilizing nanomaterials in

Assessment of the toxicity and carcinogenicity of double-walled carbon nanotubes in the rat lung after intratracheal instillation: a two-year study

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2022
Background Considering the expanding industrial applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), safety assessment of these materials is far less than needed. Very few long-term in vivo studies have been carried out.

TiO2 nanoparticles alter nutrients acquisition, growth, biomacromolecules, oil composition and modulate antioxidant defense system in Mentha arvensis L.

open access: yesPlant Nano Biology, 2023
The current study demonstrates the impact of TiO2 NPs (0–5 µg ml−1) on Mentha arvensis L. (Lamiaceae) cultivated commercially for essential oil. The high concentration of titanium in plant tissues (roots, leaves and stem), presence of Ti peaks in EDS of ...

Carcinogenic effect of potassium octatitanate (POT) fibers in the lung and pleura of male Fischer 344 rats after intrapulmonary administration

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2019
Background Potassium octatitanate fibers (K2O•8TiO2, POT fibers) are used as an asbestos substitute. Their physical characteristics suggest that respirable POT fibers are likely to be carcinogenic in the lung and pleura.
