Abstract:Background
The utilization of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TIO2NPs) has experienced a significant surge in recent decades, and these particles are now commonly found in various everyday consumer products. Due to their small size, TIO2NPs can penetrate biological barriers and elicit adverse interactions with biological tissues. Notably, exposure of pregnant females to TIO2NPs during the perinatal period has been shown to disrupt the growth of offspring. Furthermore, this exposure induces epig… Show more
