In a 2020 study published in the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, researchers conducted an in vitro experiment to analyze the effects of TiO2 nanoparticles on a human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cell line. The scientists evaluated “reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, apoptosis, cellular antioxidant response, endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy.” The results showed that exposure to the nanoparticles “induced ROS generation in a dose dependent manner, with values reaching up to 10 fold those of controls. Nrf2 nuclear localization and autophagy also increased in a dose dependent manner. Apoptosis increased by 4- to 10-fold compared to the control group, depending on the dose employed.”

One of the key areas of focus for TiO2 technology manufacturers is environmental sustainability. With increasing concerns about climate change and environmental impact, TiO2 manufacturers are exploring ways to reduce their carbon footprint and minimize waste in their production processes. By implementing new technologies, such as recycling and waste reduction initiatives, TiO2 manufacturers are able to produce TiO2 products in a more eco-friendly manner.

Gravimetric analysis is a method of quantitative chemical analysis in which a substance is converted into a stable compound of known composition, and the mass of this compound is then measured. This technique offers a high level of precision and is particularly useful in determining the concentration of materials within complex mixtures. The gravimetric determination of titanium dioxide typically involves a series of well-defined steps, which include precipitation, filtration, washing, drying, and weighing.
