Thousands of researchers and workers worldwide are employed in nanocomposites
manufacturing, yet little is known about their respiratory health. Aerosol exposures were …

Researchers in nanocomposite processing may inhale a variety of chemical agents,
including nanoparticles. This study investigated airway oxidative stress status in the exhaled …

Objective To determine whether exposure of workers handling engineered nanoparticles
(ENPs) may result in increased inflammation and changes in lung function. Methods A …

Human data concerning exposure to nanoparticles are very limited, and biomarkers for
monitoring exposure are urgently needed. In a follow-up of a 2016 study in a …

The aim of this study was to survey the work-relatedness of symptoms and diseases among
engineered nanomaterials handling workers by questionnaire. A total of 258 exposed …

Objectives: Nanomaterial production and the number of people directly in contact with these
materials are increasing. Yet, little is known on the association between exposure and …

The aim of this study was to identify the health hazards and possible exposure surveillance
markers of workers exposed to nanoparticles during manufacturing and application in …

The current evidence on nanomaterial toxicity is mostly derived from experimental studies
making it challenging to translate it into human health risks. We established an international …

Ultrafine particles (UFP) have been postulated to significantly contribute to the adverse
health effects associated with exposure to particulate matter (PM). Due to their extremely …

Background Several recent studies have linked emissions from printing equipment with
upper airway inflammation and systemic oxidative stress in healthy humans, lung …
