Toxicity Evaluation of Nanostructured Silica Orally Administered to Rats: Influence on Immune System Function

Toxicity Evaluation of Nanostructured Silica Orally Administered to Rats: Influence on Immune System Function

The experimental data on the oral toxicity of nanostructured amorphous silica (SiO<sub>2</sub>), widely used in food supplements, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, in terms of its in vivo effect on the immune system, are contradictory. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the rat’s immune...
