Cell viability of BEAS-2B cells exposed to TNPs for 24 hours induced by TNPs.

Notes: Cell viability of BEAS-2B cells was measured by an MTT assay after 24-hour exposure with various concentrations of TNPs. The results indicated that TNPs induced cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner. *P<0.05, compared with control. Data are expressed as mean ± SD; n=3.

Abbreviations: MTT, 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide; SD, standard deviation; TNPs, titanium dioxide nanoparticles.
