Abstract:With the recent development of nanotechnology,nanomaterial (NM) with particle size below 100 nm have been developed and applied in various kinds of fields. For example, amorphous silica nanoparticles (nSP) have been already used in various foods as anticaking agents. Under this circumstance, there is increasing the importance of ensuring the safety of NM in foods. We previously revealed that nSP can penetrate the intestinal barrier, however,did not induce significant general toxicity. On the other hand, when w… 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.
