4. Evaluation of the Toxicity of Silver/Silica and Titanium Dioxide Particles in Mammalian Cells
ABSTRACT The increasing concern over the spread of diseases has lead to a high consumption of antimicrobial additives in the medical and industrial fields. Since these particles can lixiviate from loaded materials, the contact between this additive and mammalian cells can occur during manufacture, use and disposal of the products. Silver on fumed silica (AgN

5. Pharmacological characterization of cnidarian extracts from the Caribbean Sea: evaluation of anti-snake venom and antitumor properties
Abstract Background: Cnidarians produce toxins, which are composed of different polypeptides that induce pharmacological effects of biotechnological interest, such as antitumor, antiophidic and anti-clotting activities. This study aimed to evaluate toxicological activities and potential as antitumor and antiophidic agents contained in total extracts from fi

6. BONEFILL ® block as alternative for bone substitute: a toxicological evaluation
ABSTRACT Bone substitutes based on hydroxyapatite (HA) and Bonefill® (BO - inorganic bovine bone) associated with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) (HA/PLGA and BO/PLGA) were evaluated concerning cytotoxicity, genotoxicity and mutagenicity as potential candidates for bone repair. The materials were developed and provided by Bionnovation Biomedical Produc

7. Development and evaluation of an inhalation chamber for in vivo tests
ABSTRACT The bioavailability, toxicity, and therapeutic efficacy of a drug is directly related to its administration route. The pulmonary route can be accessed by inhalation after fumigation, vaporization or nebulization. Thus, pharmacological and toxicological evaluation accessed by an apparatus specifically designed and validated for this type of administr

10. Toxicological Evaluation of Anti-Scrapie Trimethoxychalcones and Oxadiazoles
Uma forma alterada da proteína prion celular, a PrPSc ou PrPRes, está envolvida na ocorrência das encefalopatias espongiformes transmissíveis. Nós sintetizamos e caracterizamos previamente compostos aromáticos que inibem o acúmulo da proteína prion resistente a proteases (PrPRes) em células infectadas com prion scrapie. Estes compostos pertencem a d

11. Traditional use and safety of herbal medicines
In the European Union, traditional herbal medicines that are regarded as "acceptably safe, albeit not having a recognized level of efficacy" fit into a special category of drugs ("traditional herbal medicine products") for which requirements of non-clinical and clinical studies are less rigorous. A regulation proposal published by the Brazilian National Heal

12. Passiflora incarnata treatment during gestation and lactation: toxicological and antioxidant evaluation in wistar dams
Passiflora incarnata é comercializada em muitos países como fitoterápico. Embora a bula da maioria dos fitoterápicos recomende que eles sejam usados sob supervisão médica, estudos sobre a toxicidade reprodutiva e do desenvolvimento desses produtos são raros e não obrigatórios para fins regulatórios. Neste estudo, realizamos uma avaliação da toxic
