- Particle release and control of worker exposure during laboratory-scale synthesis, handling and simulated spills of manufactured nanomaterials in fume hoods 18. 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 … - Hepatic toxicity assessment of cationic liposome exposure in healthy and chronic alcohol fed mice 30. November, 2017
[Open access]The utilisation of nanoparticles as the means of targeted delivery of therapeutics and/or imaging agents could greatly enhance the specific transport of biologically active payloads to ta … - Parametric analysis of the growth of colloidal ZnO nanoparticles synthesized in alcoholic medium 25. October, 2017
The growth kinetics of nanosized ZnO was studied considering the influence of different parameters (mixing degree, temperature, alcohol chain length, reactant concentration and Zn/OH ratios) on the sy … - Multi-walled carbon nanotube-induced genotoxic, inflammatory and pro-fibrotic responses in mice: Investigating the mechanisms of pulmonary carcinogenesis 9. October, 2017
[Open access]The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified one type of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as possibly carcinogenic to humans. However, the underlying mechanisms of … - Discussion about the use of the volume specific surface area (VSSA) as a criterion to identify nanomaterials according to the EU definition. Part two: experimental approach 28. September, 2017
The first part of this study was dedicated to the modelling of the influence of particle shape, porosity and particle size distribution on the volume specific surface area (VSSA) values in order to ch …
