Moving into advanced nanomaterials. Toxicity of rutile TiO2 nanoparticles immob...
Bessa, MJ; Costa, C; Reinosa, J; Pereira, C; Fraga, SA; Fernández, J; Bañares, MA; Teixeira, JPImmobilization of nanoparticles on inorganic supports has been recently developed, resulting in the creation of nanocomposites. Concerning titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs1), these have already been developed in conjugation with clays, but so far there are no available toxicological studies on these nanocomposites. The present work intended to evaluate the hepatic toxicity of nanocomposites (C-TiO22), c...

Assessment of DNA damage in a group of professional dancers during a 10-month d...
Esteves, FC; Teixeira, E; Amorim, T; Costa, C; Pereira, CC; Fraga, SA; De Andrade, VM; Teixeira, JP; Costa, SDespite the numerous health benefits of physical activity, some studies reported that increased intensity and duration may induce oxidative stress in several cellular components including DNA. The aim of this study was to assess the level of basal DNA damage as well as oxidative DNA damage in a group of professional dancers before and after a 10-month dancing season. A group of individuals from general populati...
