Characterizations and in vitro toxicity screening were performed on metal oxide engineered
nanomaterials (ENMs) independently comprising ZnO, CuO, CeO 2, Fe 2 O 3, WO 3, V 2 O …

Exposure of humans to metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) occurs mainly via air, and inhaled
metal oxide NPs may generate inflammation. The aim of this study was to investigate the …

Background A standard short-term inhalation study (STIS) was applied for hazard
assessment of 13 metal oxide nanomaterials and micron-scale zinc oxide. Methods Rats …

Metal oxide nanoparticles are used in a broad range of industrial processes and workers
may be exposed to aerosols of the particles both during production and handling. Despite …

Introduction: Increased use of nanomaterials has raised concerns about the potential for
undesirable human health and environmental effects. Releases into the air may occur and …

Background Acute phase response (APR) is characterized by a change in concentration of
different proteins, including C-reactive protein and serum amyloid A (SAA) that can be linked …

Comparative hazard identification of nanomaterials (NMs) can aid in the prioritisation for
further toxicity testing. Here, we assessed the acute lung, systemic and liver responses in …

Exposure to nanomaterials (NMs) is inevitable, requiring robust toxicological assessment to
understand potential environmental and human health effects. NMs are favored in many …

Background Although classified as metal oxides, cobalt monoxide (CoO) and lanthanum
oxide (La 2 O 3) nanoparticles, as representative transition and rare earth oxides, exhibit …

Nanomaterials can display distinct biological effects compared with bulk materials of the
same chemical composition. The physico‐chemical characterization of nanomaterials and …
