Abstract:In this study, the toxicity effects of titanium dioxide (MTiO2) microparticles on A. salina nauplii instar I and II between 24 and 48 h was evaluated. The MTiO2 were characterized by X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Zeta potential (ζ), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). MTiO2 rutile phase with an average crystallite size of 114.5 ± 2.44 nm was used in toxicity tests at concentration of 12.5, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
