Bialas N, Rosenkranz N, Weber D, Kostka K, Johnen G, Winter A, et al.
Part Fibre Toxicol . 2024 May; 21(1):23. PMID: 38734694
Background: Inhalation of biopersistent fibers like asbestos can cause strong chronic inflammatory effects, often resulting in fibrosis or even cancer. The interplay between fiber shape, fiber size and the resulting...

Nanomaterials (Basel) . 2023 May; 13(10). PMID: 37242038
Six types of titanium dioxide particles with defined size, shape, and crystal structure (polymorphic form) were prepared: nanorods (70 × 25 nm), rutile sub-microrods (190 × 40 nm), rutile microspheres...

Monse C, Westphal G, Raulf M, Jettkant B, van Kampen V, Kendzia B, et al.
BMC Pulm Med . 2022 Jun; 22(1):233. PMID: 35710385
Background: Most threshold limit values are based on animal experiments. Often, the question remains whether these data reflect the situation in humans. As part of a series of investigations in...

Olejnik M, Breisch M, Sokolova V, Loza K, Prymak O, Rosenkranz N, et al.
Sci Total Environ . 2021 Jan; 769:144575. PMID: 33486165
Silica fibers with a dimension of 0.3 μm ∙ 3.2 μm nm were prepared by a modified Stöber synthesis as model particles. The particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy,...

Kersting M, Olejnik M, Rosenkranz N, Loza K, Breisch M, Rostek A, et al.
Sci Rep . 2020 Dec; 10(1):21591. PMID: 33299057
Health risks from particles are a priority challenge to health protection at work. Despite the ubiquitous exposure to a wide range of particles and the many years of research in...

Monse C, Raulf M, Jettkant B, van Kampen V, Kendzia B, Schurmeyer L, et al.
Arch Toxicol . 2020 Oct; 95(1):53-65. PMID: 33001223
Inhalation of ZnO particles can cause inflammation of the airways and metal fume fever. It is unclear if different sizes of the particles alter these effects. However, various studies report...

Bruning T, Bartsch R, Bolt H, Desel H, Drexler H, Gundert-Remy U, et al.
Arch Toxicol . 2014 Sep; 88(10):1855-79. PMID: 25182421
There is a need of guidance on how local irritancy data should be incorporated into risk assessment procedures, particularly with respect to the derivation of occupational exposure limits (OELs). Therefore,...

Schnuch A, Westphal G, Mossner R, Uter W, Reich K
Contact Dermatitis . 2010 Dec; 64(1):2-23. PMID: 21166814
The genetics of contact allergy are still only partly understood, despite decades of research; this might be a consequence of inadequately defined phenotypes used in the past. A recommendation is...

Bunger J, Krahl J, Munack A, Ruschel Y, Schroder O, Emmert B, et al.
Arch Toxicol . 2007 Mar; 81(8):599-603. PMID: 17375286
Diesel engine emissions (DEE) are classified as probably carcinogenic to humans. In recent years every effort was made to reduce DEE and their content of carcinogenic and mutagenic polycyclic aromatic...

Cancer Lett . 2006 May; 246(1-2):218-23. PMID: 16713673
There is strong evidence to suggest that the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma, a member of the nuclear receptor family of transcriptional regulators, mediates tumor suppressive activities in a variety of...
