RE-EVALUATION OF PULMONARY TITANIUM DIOXIDE NANOPARTICLE DISTRIBUTION USING THE "RELATIVE DEPOSITION INDEX": EVIDENCE FOR CLEARANCE THROUGH MICROVASCULATURE

Re-evaluation of pulmonary titanium dioxide nanoparticle distribution using the "relative deposition index": Evidence for clearance through microvasculature

Abstract Background Translocation of nanoparticles (NP) from the pulmonary airways into other pulmonary compartments or the systemic circulation is controversially discussed in the literature.In a previous study it was shown that titanium dioxide (TiO2) NP were "distributed in four lung compartments (air-filled spaces, epithelium/endothelium, conne

Splenic hematoma and pelvic bladder in a spayed German shepherd mongrel bitch (Canis lupus familiaris). A case report.

: Splenic hematomas represent the most encountered splenic benign masses in dogs (Canis lupus familiaris), and they are usually secondary to splenic nodular hyperplasia.In most spayed bitches with urinary incontinence (UI), pelvic bladders are a common finding.In addition, ovariohysterectomy (OHE), hormonal imbalances, and various anatomical anomal
