Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) are among the highest produced nanoparticles in the world today and are increasingly being incorporated into a wide range of construction and domestic products. Production on such a massive scale raises…

The mechanisms of action involved in the neurotoxicity of solvents are poorly understood. Studies have suggested that the effects of some solvents might be due to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This study assesses hydroxyl radical…

Exposure to 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) has been shown to induce peripheral neuropathy in rats. 1,2-diacetylbenzene (1,2-DAB), a g-diketone-like compound, is thought to be the active metabolite responsible for the neurotoxicity observed. Moreover…
