Resumo(s)
Nanotechnology offers many possibilities in the ceramic sector by providing innovation
of the industrial processes and products. However, nanoparticles (NPs) used in the
manufacture of ceramic goods or released to the workplace air during production may
pose a serious hazard for human health. This study aimed to investigate in vitro toxicity
of both engineered (ENPs) (ZrO2, CeO2, SnO2 and Sb2O3•SnO2) and process-generated
nanoparticles (PGNPs) [released during High Velocity Oxy-Fuel (HVOF) spraying] in
human alveolar epithelial cells, a primary target following inhalation exposure.
