- Nanoecotoxicological evaluation graphene oxide, AP.R
Abstract
Nanostructured graphene oxide has applications in areas such as electronics, pharmaceutical and environmental. Their diverse and promising uses raise concerns about the consequences to human and environmental health of the inadequate / inappropriate disposal of waste materials and/or products. Despite nanotoxicological studies have been intensified in recent years, gaps still remain in ...
- Evaluation of nano-TiO2 toxic effects in fish, AP.R
Abstract
The production and use of synthetic nanoparticles is rapidly growing. Therefore, the presence of these materials into the environment seems to be inevitable. However, the effects on humans and ecosystems exposed to nanoparticles have not been fully elucidated. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has several possibilities for industrial use, in cosmetics and even in water treatment. Thus, studies of...
