In order to evaluate the toxicity of TiO 2 particles, the acute toxicity of nano-sized TiO 2
particles (25 and 80nm) on adult mice was investigated compared with fine TiO 2 particles (155nm…

Nanoscale titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is massively produced and widely used in living environment,
which hence make the potential risk to human health. Central nervous system (CNS) is …

The present study was carried out to solve the problems of long washout time and non-linear
calibration curves encountered in mercury analysis using inductively coupled plasma mass …

[Gd@C 82 (OH) 22 ] n particles (22 nm in a saline solution) of a dose level as low as 10 -7
mol/kg exhibit a very high antineoplastic efficiency (∼60%) in mice. A dose increment of 1 × …

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in paddy fields is a serious health concern because of its high
toxicity and widespread pollution. Recently, much progress has been made in elucidating …

The biogeochemical cycling and chemical transformation of Se in Chinese environments is
reviewed, especially with regard to the formation of low-Se environments. The occurrence, …

Oxidative stress is considered to be one of the important mechanisms involved in carcinogenesis.
In our previous study, gadolinium endohedral metallofullerenol ([Gd@C 82 (OH) 22 ] n …

Environment and energy are the two most important aspects of human health and development.
With hazardous materials being continuously produced by anthropogenic involvements, …

Background: Mercury is a ubiquitous and highly toxic environmental pollutant. In this study,
we evaluated the relationship between mercury exposure and oxidative stress, serum and …

Conversion of organic waste into engineered metal-biochar composite is an effective way of
enhancing biochar’s efficiency for adsorptive capture of phosphorus (P) from aqueous media…
