A kinetic study was performed to determine the influence of particle size on the in vivo tissue
distribution of spherical-shaped gold nanoparticles in the rat. Gold nanoparticles were …

This article reviews the general characterization of nano-objects, especially engineered
nanoparticles (ENPs) and discusses analytical techniques commonly used for their …

The increasing use of nanoparticles in products likely results in increased exposure of both
workers and consumers. Because of their small size, there are concerns that nanoparticles …

The development of engineered nanomaterials is growing exponentially, despite concerns
over their potential similarities to environmental nanoparticles that are associated with …

This study uniquely describes all steps of the risk assessment process for the use of one
specific nanomaterial (nanosilica) in food products. The aim was to identify gaps in essential …

Objective The aim of this study was to obtain kinetic data that can be used in human risk
assessment of titanium dioxide nanomaterials. Methods Tissue distribution and blood kinetics of …

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 …

Aims: To develop and determine the safety of gold nanorods, whose aspect ratios can be
tuned to obtain plasmon peaks between 650 and 850 nm, as contrast enhancing agents for …

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 …

BACKGROUND: Cerium oxide (CeO 2 ) nanoparticles improve the burning efficiency of fuel,
however, little is known about health impacts of altered emissions from the vehicles. …
