- Quantitative human health risk assessment along the lifecycle of nano-scale copper-based wood preservatives [Epub ahead of print] 18. June, 2018
The use of nano-scale copper oxide (CuO) and basic copper carbonate (Cu2(OH)2CO3) in both ionic and micronized wood preservatives has raised concerns about the potential of these substances to cause a … - Nanofibrillated cellulose causes acute pulmonary inflammation that subsides within a month [Epub ahead of print] 3. June, 2018
Nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) is a renewable nanomaterial that has beneficial uses in various applications such as packaging materials and paper. Like carbon nanotubes (CNT), NFCs have high aspect r … - Toxicity of pristine and paint-embedded TiO2 nanomaterials [Epub ahead of print] 31. May, 2018
Little is known on the toxicity of nanomaterials in the user phase. Inclusion of nanomaterials in paints is a common nanotechnology application. This study focuses on the toxicity of dusts from sandin … - Occupational exposure during handling and loading of halloysite nanotubes: A case study of counting nanofibers 7. May, 2018

March, 2018
[Open access]Fume hoods are one of the most common types of equipment applied to reduce the potential of particle exposure in laboratory environments. A number of previous studies have shown particle … - Pulmonary exposure to carbonaceous nanomaterials and sperm quality 1. February, 2018
[Open access]BACKGROUND: Semen quality parameters are potentially affected by nanomaterials in several ways: Inhaled nanosized particles are potent inducers of pulmonary inflammation, leading to the r … - Primary genotoxicity in the liver following pulmonary exposure to carbon black nanoparticles in mice 15. January, 2018
[Open acces]BACKGROUND: Little is known about the mechanism underlying the genotoxicity observed in the liver following pulmonary exposure to carbon black (CB) nanoparticles (NPs). The genotoxicity co … - Influence of dispersion medium on nanomaterial-induced pulmonary inflammation and DNA strand breaks: investigation of carbon black, carbon nanotubes and three titanium dioxide nanoparticles 30. December, 2017
[Open access]Intratracheal instillation serves as a model for inhalation exposure. However, for this, materials are dispersed in appropriate media that may influence toxicity. We tested whether differ … - An efficient algorithm scheme for implementing the TEMOM for resolving aerosol dynamics 30. December, 2017
This paper presents a new algorithm scheme for implementing the Taylor-series expansion method of moments (TEMOM), which is a general method for solving the population balance equation. Instead of der … - Quantitative material releases from products and articles containing manufactured nanomaterials: Towards a release library 30. December, 2017
[Open access]Abstract Environmental and human risk assessment models are critical for estimating the impact of nanomaterials on the ecosystem and human health. Realistic exposure estimates usually req …
