A review on nanotoxicity and nanogenotoxicity of different shapes of nanomaterials
(Journal of applied Toxicology, 2021)
Nanomaterials (NMs) generally display fascinating physical and chemical properties that are not always present in bulk materials; therefore, any modification to their size, shape, or coating tends to cause significant ...
Adverse biological effects of ingested polystyrene microplastics using Drosophila melanogaster as a model in vivo organism
(Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A: Current Issues, 2021)
The abundant presence and extensive use of polystyrene microplastics (PSMPs) has recently
become a serious environmental concern, as impact of exposure to these substances on human
health remains unknown. While in vitro ...
Cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of cadmium oxide nanoparticles evaluated using in vitro assays
(Mutation Research - Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, 2020)
Cadmium oxide nanoparticles (CdO NPs) are among some of the most studied and industrially used metal oxide NPs. They have been widely used for industrial application, such as paint pigments and electronic devices, and ...
An in vivo study of nanorod, nanosphere, and nanowire forms of titanium dioxide using Drosophila melanogaster: toxicity, cellular uptake, oxidative stress, and DNA damage
(Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A, 2020)
The biological impact of nanomaterials (NMs) is determined by several factors such as size and shape, which need to be taken into consideration in any type of analysis. While investigators often prefer to conduct in vitro ...
In vivo evaluation of the toxic and genotoxic effects of exposure to cobalt nanoparticles using Drosophila melanogaster
(Environmental Science Nano, 2020)
Nanomaterials in general and cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs) in particular are of great interest not only because of their multiple applications and environmental impact, but also for their potential toxicity and safety issues. ...
