Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are increasingly being used in industrial applications, but their toxicological data in animals and humans are still rare. To understand the effects of CNTs, their quantification in tissues, especially lungs, is crucial…

Despite numerous possible applications, the potential impact of Carbon Engineered Nanomaterials (CEN) on human health, particularly after exposure by inhalation, is still questioned. However, accurate quantification of CEN in the respiratory…

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…

Due to their physical and chemical properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are among the most promising nanomaterials in terms of industrial use. In order to assess their toxicological properties, inhalation experiments performed in laboratory…

Il est bien tabli que de nombreux solvants industriels peuvent provoquer une d pression du syst me nerveux central, caract ris e par de la somnolence, des tats d bri t , des baisses de concentration et de coordination, ce qui peut augmenter les risques…

Due to the growing use of nanoparticles in industrial processes, the number of workers potentially exposed is increasing while the toxicological effects of these compounds have not been fully characterized yet. Because inhalation represents…

Some volatile aromatic solvents have similar or opposite effects to anesthetics in the central nervous system. Like for anesthetics, the mechanisms of action involved are currently the subject of debate. The purpose of this in vivo study was…

Due to the growing use of nanoparticles in industrial processes, the number of workers potentially exposed is increasing while the toxicological properties of these compounds are not fully known. Inhalation represents the main route of occupational…
