Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) can affect human health primarily via inhalation. This study evaluated the protective effects of theaflavins (TFs) and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) against ZnO-NP-induced cytotoxicity in rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells. After exposure to ZnO-NPs (100 µg/L), treatment with TFs and EGCG (10, 100 and 1000 µg/L) significantly inhibited the levels of...
