  • Absorption, LD50 and Effects of CoO, MgO and PbO Nanoparticles on Mice "Mus musculus" 
    Shaikh, S.; Shyama, S.K.; Desai, P.V. (IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT). 9(2 (ver 1)); 2015; 32-38.)
    Metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) are widely used in the world for different purposes. This is the first report on the LD50 and the effects of CoO, MgO and PbO NPs on mice. LD50 for acute and 30 day's chronic dosage of these ...
  • Carbon nanoparticle toxicity to marine algae Navicula longa and Isochrysis galbana. 
    Miranda, A.A.; Shaikh, S.; Sarode, P.R.; Desai, P.V. (Indian Journal of Geo-Marine Sciences. 41(4); 2012; 331-337.)
    Present study reports cytotoxicity of Carbon Nanoparticles to Navicula and Isochrysis. Cytotoxicity was determined by morphological changes, cell density count, Acid Phosphatase and Lactate dehydrogenase assays. Carbon ...
  • Effect of CoO nanoparticles on the carbohydrate metabolism of the brain of mice "Mus musculus" 
    Shaikh, S.; Desai, P.V. (The Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology. 77; 2016; 1-7.)
    The effect of CoO nanoparticles (NPs) on the brain of mice administered through gastrointestinal tract for a period of 30 days was studied. AAS analysis revealed that NPs administered orally were retained by cerebellum, ...
  • Effect of CoO nanoparticles on the enzyme activities and neurotransmitters of the brain of the mice "Mus musculus" 
    Shaikh, S.; Desai, P.V. (Current Trends in Clinical Toxicology. 1(1); 2018; 8pp.)
    The effects of CoO Nanoparticles (NPs) on the brain enzymes and neurotransmitters of the mice were studied. The NPs were fed orally to the mice for a period of 30 days. The chronic (30 days) exposure of mice to NPs exhibited ...
  • Magnesium oxide nanoparticles administered orally promote degenerative changes and dysfunctioning in the brain 
    Shaikh, S.; Desai, P.V. (Indian Journal of Experimental Biology. 62(4); 2024; 229-237.)
    Magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) have shown immense potential due to their unique and versatile properties useful for various biological applications. However, concerns about their potential toxicity to living ...
  • Toxicity of cobalt oxide nanoparticles 
    Rebello, V.; Shaikh, S.; Desai, P.V. (International Conference on Environmental Engineering and Applications (ICEEA). 2010; 195-199.)
    The cytotoxicity of CoO nanoparticles on two micro algae (Navicula sp. and Chetoceros sp.) and Bivalve Gill cells was investigated. Cytotoxicity was determined by cellular morphological changes and LDH (Lactose Dehydrogenase), ...
  • Toxicological aspects of nanomaterials in biomedical research (Chapter 13) 
    D'Costa, A.H.; Shaikh, S.; Kundaikar, G.; Furtado, S. (Advances in Nano and Biochemistry: Environmental and Biomedical Applications, Ed. by Pranay Morajkar, Milind Naik. 2023; 369-391.)
    Nanomaterials are used extensively in medicine owing to their size and unique properties. A number of engineered nanomaterials appear to be promising with regard to their applications in medicine such as targeted drug ...
