Methanolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is one of the methods efficient enough to release, on demand, the hydrogen stored in the hydride as well as in 4 equiv of methanol (CH3OH). It is generally reported that, in methanolysis, sodium tetramethoxyborate (NaB(OCH3)4) forms as single component of the spent fuel. It i…

We conducted systemic assessments on the toxicity of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles using different forms of normal colon cells (CCD-18Co), in vivo and in human colon organoids. The in vivo acute oral toxicity data showed that the LD50 values are greater than 2000 mg/kg for both the S…
