Titanium dioxide Nanoparticles an Oxidative Stress Inducer: A Review on noxious corollary.

Abstract

It is unquestionable that the employment of nano technology in every enterprise depicts a future for sustainable development due to the cheap and clean availability of nano materials. Evidently the researchers have largely centered on the blessings of the nano materials in cosmetics and food industries failing to center the negative effects it can impose on human fitness and environment. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one such nano particle that despite its elite properties is responsible for generation of oxidative stress. This review compiles some significant research carried out for the assessment of accelerated oxidative stress markers and the presence of Titania traces in human samples and sea organisms manifesting how they are damaging the living mechanisms. The elimination of the nanoparticles into the environment somehow advances towards land and water contaminating the soil, rivers and oceans having a derogatory effect on the natural running phenomena of soil organisms, sea algae and mussels. This review presents the latest findings and indicates making some strategies for reducing the use of the nano materials to a significant but limited amount making sure that it is not liable to any impairment to the humans and the surroundings.
