Despite the wide application of quantum dots (QDs) in electronics, pharmacy and
nanomedicine, limited data is available on their environmental health risk. To advance our …

This review aims to (i) provide a current overview of the main characteristics of SiNP
(physical and chemical properties, applications, and emissions),(ii) evaluate the scientific …

This study evaluated the in vitro effects of 62.5 µg/mL silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) on
MRC-5 human lung fibroblast cells for 24, 48 and 72 h. The nanoparticles' morphology …

The increasing production and use of nanoparticles (NP) have raised concerns regarding
the potential toxicity to human and environmental health. In this review, we address the up to …

Активное использование наноматериалов в различных сферах приводит к их
интенсивному поступлению в окружающую среду и вовлечению в процессы …

Quantum dots (QDs) interaction with living organisms is of central interest due to their
various biological and medical applications. One of the most important mechanisms …

When silica nanoparticles (SiNP) reach the water bodies interact with the already existing
pollutants in the environments. This study aimed to evaluate the ecotoxicity of SiNP under …

Silicon-based quantum dots were intraperitoneally injected in Carassius auratus gibelio
specimens and, over one week, the effects on renal tissue were investigated by following …

In the present work, the basic optical characterisation and thermal diffusivity studies of
silicon nanofluid were carried out by mode-matched dual-beam thermal lens technique. The …

The use of quantum dots (QDs) in biomedical applications is limited due to their inherent
toxicity caused by the heavy metal core of the particles. Consequently, silicon-based QDs …
