Salivary Leucocytes as In Vitro Model to Evaluate Nanoparticle-Induced DNA Damage
(MDPI, 2021-07-27)
[Abstract] Metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have a wide variety of applications in many consumer products and biomedical practices. As a result, human exposure to these nanomaterials is highly frequent, becoming an issue ...
Cytogenetic Effects Induced by Prestige Oil on Human Populations: The Role of Polymorphisms in Genes Involved in Metabolism and DNA Repair
(Elsevier, 2008-04-18)
[Abstract] The spill from the oil tanker Prestige (NW Spain, November 2002) was perhaps the biggest ecological disaster that happened worldwide in the last decades. As a consequence of this catastrophe a general concern ...
Assessment of Okadaic Acid Effects on Cytotoxicity, DNA Damage and DNA Repair in Human Cells
(Elsevier, 2010-05-26)
[Abstract] Okadaic acid (OA) is a phycotoxin produced by several types of dinoflagellates causing diarrheic shellfish poisoning (DSP) in humans. Symptoms induced by DSP toxins are mainly gastrointestinal, but the intoxication ...
Neuronal Cytotoxicity and Genotoxicity Induced by Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2013-03-26)
[Abstract] Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are one of the most abundantly used nanomaterials in consumer products and biomedical applications. As a result, human exposure to these NPs is highly frequent and they have ...
Comparative Study on Effects of Two Different Types of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles on Human Neuronal Cells
(Elsevier, 2013-04-15)
[Abstract] Titanium dioxide (TiO2) are among most frequently used nanoparticles (NPs). They are present in a variety of consumer products, including food industry in which they are employed as an additive. The potential ...
