“…By contrast, more recently, Tran et al reported that exposure to MoO 3 NPs induces apoptosis and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) in breast cancer iMCF-7 cells [22]. In recent study, MoO 3 NPs exhibited a high antibacterial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and also showed significant cytotoxic influence on lung and breast cancer cell lines [23].…”

Despite an increasing surge in application of nanoparticles in industries, there is a serious lack of information concerning their impact on human health and the environment. The present study investigated effects of molybdenum nanoparticles (Mo NPs) injected intraperitoneally into Sprague-Dawley rats at different doses of Mo NPs (5, 10, and 15 mg/kg BW per day) during a period of 28 days. Hematological and biochemical parameters as well as sexual hormones and histopathological examinations of the liver and testis were assessed and compared with control group. The results showed that the serum levels of testosterone decreased significantly in both groups of 10 and 15 mg (Mo NPs)/kg BW in comparison with the control group (p < 0.05). However, there were insignificant differences observed in luteinizing hormone (LH) levels and hematological parameters when compared with the control group (p > 0.05). The results of liver enzymes showed that serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) decreased significantly in both dosage groups of 5 and 10 mg/kg BW (Mo NPs) when compared with the control group (p < 0.05), and significant decrease obtained in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels at dose of 5 mg/kg BW in comparison with the control group (p < 0.05). The histopathological examination of testis showed a decrease in number of Leydig cells. Also, the number of chronic inflammatory cells increased in portal triad and parenchyma in liver tissue of rats exposed to Mo NPs.

In this study, development of a novel thermoplastic bio-based composite with excellent antimicrobial surface properties is investigated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to evaluate the antimicrobial properties of molybdenum trioxide embedded into a cellulose acetate as biopolymer matrix. The developed composites might step up to innovative applications used in modern medical and public environments.

“…Mo oxide nanostructures showed to be effective against cytotoxicity and oxidative stress induced by H 2 O 2 in human breast MCF-7 and fibrosarcoma HT-1080 cells [2]. On the other hand, Mo oxide nanostructures exhibit excellent antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger and potent cytotoxicity against lung and breast cancer cells (MCF-7 and HEP G2 cell lines) [3].…”

Abstract. The synthesis of extremely stable molybdenum oxide nanocolloids by pulsed laser ablation was studied. This green technique ensures the formation of contaminant-free nanostructures and the absence of by-products. A focused picosecond pulsed laser beam was used to ablate a solid molybdenum target immersed in deionized water. Molybdenum oxide nearly spherical nanoparticles with dimensions within few nanometers (20-100 nm) are synthesized when the ablation processes were carried out, in water, at room temperature and 80°C. The application of an external electric field during the ablation process induces a nanostructures reorganization, as indicated by ScanningTransmission Electron Microscopy images analysis. The ablation products were also characterized by some spectroscopic techniques: conventional UV-vis optical absorption, atomic absorption, dynamic light scattering, micro-Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies. Finally, NIH/3T3 mouse fibroblasts were used to evaluate cell viability by the sulforhodamine B assay
