Organ-specific toxicity evaluation of stearamidopropyl dimethylamine (SAPDMA) surfactant using zebrafish embryos
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Surfactants are widely used in the industry of detergents, household products, and cosmetics. SAPDMA is a cationic surfactant that is used mostly in cosmetics, conditioning agents and has recently gained attention as a ...
Impaired Liver Size and Compromised Neurobehavioral Activity are Elicited by Chitosan Nanoparticles in the Zebrafish Embryo Model
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
The use of chitosan nanoparticles (ChNPs) in various biological and environmental
applications is attracting great interest. However, potential side effects related to ChNP toxicity
remain the major limitation hampering ...
“Safe” Chitosan Zinc Oxide Nanocomposite Has Minimal Organ-Specific Toxicity on Early Stages of Zebrafish Development
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
Marine biofouling is considered one of the most challenging issues affecting maritime industries worldwide. In this regard, traditional biocides, being used to combat biofouling, have high toxicity toward the aquatic system. ...
Plasmonic MXene-based nanocomposites exhibiting photothermal therapeutic effects with lower acute toxicity than pure MXene
(
DOVE Medical Press
, 2019 , Article)
Purpose: Here, we fabricated two plasmonic 2D Ti3C2Tx-based nanocomposites (Au/MXene and Au/Fe3O4/MXene) with similarly high anti-cancer photothermal therapy (PTT) capabilities, but with less in vivo toxicity than a pure ...
Ecotoxicological Assessment of Thermally- and Hydrogen-Reduced Graphene Oxide/TiO₂ Photocatalytic Nanocomposites Using the Zebrafish Embryo Model.
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have recently attracted great interest in water pollution management. Using the zebrafish embryo model, we investigated the environmental impacts of two thermally (RGOTi)- and hydrogen ...
Immunogenetics of Celiac Disease: A focus on Arab countries.
(
Bentham Science Publishers
, 2019 , Article)
Celiac Disease (CD) is a complex immunogenic disease mainly triggered by gluten intake in genetically susceptible individuals with a prevalence of 1 in 100-300. CD results from the interplay between genetic and environmental ...
AEO-7 surfactant is “super toxic” and induces severe cardiac, liver and locomotion damage in zebrafish embryos
(
SpringerOpen
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020, The Author(s). Background: Fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether-7 (AEO-7), a non-ionic surfactant, has recently been receiving extensive attention from the ocean pipeline industry for its ability to inhibit corrosion. ...
JC-10 probe as a novel method for analyzing the mitochondrial membrane potential and cell stress in whole zebrafish embryos
(
Oxford University Press
, 2021 , Article)
Background: A sensitive method to investigate cellular stress and cytotoxicity is based on measuring mitochondrial membrane potential. Recently, JC-10, was developed to measure mitochondrial membrane potential in vitro and ...
Toxicity evaluation of selected ionic liquid compounds on embryonic development of Zebrafish.
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Hydrate formation in seafloor pipelines is considered an economic and flow assurance issue for the oil and gas industries. Ionic liquids (ILs) have been recently used as potential hydrate inhibitors. Although branded as ...
