Cytotoxic and genotoxic evaluation of different synthetic amorphous silica nanomaterials in the V79 cell line
10 Mar 2015
Abstract excerpt
The nature of occupational risks and hazards in industries that produce or use synthetic amorphous silica (SAS) nanoparticles is still under discussion. Manufactured SAS occur in amorphous form and can be divided into two main types according to the production process, namely, pyrogenic silica (powder) and precipitated silica (powder, gel or colloid). The physical and chemical properties of SAS may vary in terms...
