Food-Grade Titanium Dioxide Induces Toxicity in the Nematode <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> and Acute Hepatic and Pulmonary Responses in Mice

Food-Grade Titanium Dioxide Induces Toxicity in the Nematode <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> and Acute Hepatic and Pulmonary Responses in Mice

Food-grade titanium dioxide (E171) contains variable percentages of titanium dioxide (TiO<sub>2</sub>) nanoparticles (NPs), posing concerns for its potential effects on human and animal health. Despite many studies, the actual relationship between the physicochemical properties of E171 N...
