Background There is increasing interest in the environmental and health consequences of
silver nanoparticles as the use of this material becomes widespread. Although human …

Background Although silver nanoparticles are currently used in more than 400 consumer
products, it is not clear to what extent they induce adverse effects after inhalation during …

A number of studies have shown that induction of pulmonary toxicity by nanoparticles of the
same chemical composition depends on particle size, which is likely in part due to …

The growing use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in consumer products raises concerns
about potential health effects. This study investigated the persistence and clearance of 2 …

Background The increasing use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in consumer products is
concerning. We examined the potential toxic effects when inhaled in Brown-Norway (BN) …

The health effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have not been well investigated, despite
AgNPs now being widely used in consumer products. We investigated the metabolic …

Increasing silver nanoparticle (AgNP) use in sprays, consumer products, and medical
devices has raised concerns about potential health effects. While previous studies have …

The subchronic inhalation toxicity of silver nanoparticles was studied in Sprague-Dawley
rats. Eight-week-old rats, weighing approximately 253.2 g (males) and 162.6 g (females) …

The antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles has resulted in their widespread use in
many consumer products. However, despite the continuing increase in the population …

Silver is used in a wide range of products, and during their production and use, humans may
be exposed through inhalation. Therefore, it is critical to know the concentration levels at …
