dc.description.abstractThe technology based on manufactured nanomaterials (NMs) has been pointed as key enabling technology, due to its potential to improve many products and processes, namely in agriculture, food and feed industry, leading to an exponential growth. Many products, already available, have NMs, such titanium dioxide NMs used as food additives, and many others are in development. Oral exposure may occur either directly, through the consumption of products/pharmaceuticals containing NMs, or indirectly, through the ingestion of foods contaminated with NMs released from food-contact materials or even through concentration in the food chain due to environmental accumulation. Therefore, the gastrointestinal tract appears to be a probable route of exposure to NMs and may lead to systemic exposure if the body barriers are surpassed. One major concern for public health is that NMs may produce biological effects, such as genotoxicity that are associated with increased risk of cancer. Although NMs have been extensively investigated in recent years, the studies have generated contradictory results, possibly due to differences in the physicochemical properties of the NMs studied and to other variables in the test systems. This work aimed to investigate the nano-bio interactions of titanium dioxide NMs, at cellular and molecular level, in the context of intestinal tract and digestion processes, to better understand their potential adverse impacts on human health. The results of the NMs uptake by intestinal cells, as well as their cytotoxic and genotoxic effects will be presented. This nanotoxicology approach may be incorporated at early-stage in the development of new NMs for food industry, in a “safe-by-design” approach that will enable safety to keep pace with innovation.pt_PT
