Albumin binding, antioxidant and antibacterial effects of cerium oxide nanoparticles
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Herein, the interaction of CeO2 NPs with HSA was explored by fluorescence, CD, UV–vis and molecular docking studies. Afterwards, the antioxidant activity of CeO2 NPs against H2O2-induced oxidative stress in BM-MSCs were ...
The effect of aluminum oxide on red blood cell integrity and hemoglobin structure at nanoscale
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Herein, we explored the interaction of Al2O3 NPs with RBCs and Hb to determine the effect of Al2O3 NPs on hemolytic activity and Hb denaturation. The percentage of hemolysis of extracts and direct contact assays triggered ...
