Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle Exposure on Human Glial Cells and Zebrafish ...
Valdiglesias, Vanessa; Alba-González, Anabel; Fernández-Bertólez, Natalia; Touzani, Assia; Ramos-Pan, Lucía; Reis, Ana Teresa; Moreda-Piñeiro, JorgeZinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are among the most widely used nanomaterials. They have multiple applications in cosmetics, textiles, paints, electronics and, recently, also in biomedicine. This extensive use of ZnO NPs notably increases the probability that both humans and wildlife are subjected to undesirable effects. Despite being among the most studied NPs from a toxicological point of view, much remains...
Half-sandwich Ru(p-cymene) compounds with diphosphanes: In Vitro and In Vivo ev...
Lenis Rojas, Oscar; Robalo, M. Paula; Tomaz, Ana Isabel; Fernandes, Alexandra; Roma-Rodrigues, Catarina; Gonçalves Teixeira, Ricardo; Marques, FernandaRuthenium(II) complexes are currently considered attractive alternatives to the widely used platinum-based drugs. We present herein the synthesis and characterization of half-sandwich ruthenium compounds formulated as [Ru(p-cymene)(L)Cl]-[CF3SO3] (L = 1,1-bis(methylenediphenylphosphano)ethylene, 1; L = 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphano)ethylene, 2), which were characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, H-1...
