Modulation of the uptake and toxicity of PFOA by Polystyrene and Titanium dioxide nanoparticles in Pacific oysters (Magallana gigas) and Daphnia (Daphnia magna)
DownloadFall 2023
Nanomaterial toxicity is a major concern in today’s world. The benefits of nanoparticle use have led to the production of various kinds of nanomaterials including a high volume of nanoplastics, TiO2 nanoparticles, and CeO nanoparticles. Different nanomaterials are shown to be a suitable vector...

Non digestible carbohydrates in the diet determine toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil in rats independently of β-glucuronidase activity in intestinal lumen
DownloadFall 2012
Aim of this study was to assess effects of non-digestible carbohydrates on the pathobiology of mucosal injury after chemotherapy. Rats bearing colon tumor (n=6/diet) were fed diets including 8% (w/w) as either cellulose, inulin, fructo-oligosaccharide (OligoF), 50:50 (w/w) inulin and oligoF...
