A recent study published in Nano Letters investigated how gold and titanium dioxide nanoparticles can enhance radiotherapy in tumours with low oxygen levels. These regions, common in many solid ...

Titanium dioxide, a common food colouring used in sweets and chewing gum may affect the intestine’s ability to absorb nutrients and protect against harmful pathogens, a study has determined.

An international research team led by École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) has built a perovskite solar cell with an electron transport layer (ETL) based on single-crystalline titanium ...

Nanoparticles of titanium dioxide (TiO2) are commonly used in sunscreens as protection against ultraviolet radiation. Partly because the particles are so small, nanoscale TiO2 does not reflect visible ...

Comparison of intratumoral biodistribution of a pegylated and a nonpegylated form of liposomal doxorubicin in orthotopic high-grade glioma xenografts. Methods: 3 nm TiO 2 nanoparticles (NPs) were ...

Titanium Dioxide, a common additive found in more than 11,000 U.S. foods, has been linked to oxidative stress, organ damage, and even cancer. Stacey Leasca is an award-winning journalist with nearly ...

To better evaluate the impact on living organisms of the widespread presence of titanium dioxide in the environment and measure the real exposure of animals and humans, scientists from INRAE, AP-HP, ...

A pioneering study, released as a preprint on the bioRxiv* server, reports on the interaction of a tailored titanium oxide nanoparticle (NP) with the full-length severe acute respiratory syndrome ...

Boston, MA, USA Scientists have found that sunscreen from bathers releases significant quantities of polluting TiO2 (titanium dioxide) into the sea. This has the potential to harm marine life. This ...
