Adult young as the fragile ontogenetic stage of the house crickets dietary exposed to GO nanoparticles - digestive enzymes perspective.

Graphene oxide nanoparticles (GO) (have promising properties for, electronics, energy, medicine, water purification, agriculture and food production industry. However, their potentially hazardous effects are still not satisfactorily recognized, so they are often included in the group of contaminants of emerging concern. Therefore, the aim of this investigation was to assess the potentially harmful effects of orally administered GO on the digestive enzyme activities of the house crickets Acheta domesticus.

Graphene oxide in low concentrations can change mitochondrial potential, autophagy, and apoptosis paths in two strains of invertebrates with different life strategies.

Nanoparticles, like graphene oxide (GO), are particles with unique physiochemical properties that enable their wide application in various areas of life. The effects of GO on individual cell organelles like mitochondria and the effects of interactions are worth investigating, as they can activate multiple cellular processes, such as autophagy or apoptosis. Mitochondrial injury plays an essential role in the majority of cell death routines.

Rydberg-State Double-Well Potentials of Van der Waals Molecules.

Recent progress in studies of Rydberg double-well electronic energy states of MeNg (Me = 12-group atom, Ng = noble gas atom) van der Waals (vdW) molecules is presented and analysed. The presentation covers approaches in experimental studies as well as ab initio-calculations of potential energy curves (PECs). The analysis is shown in a broader context of Rydberg states of hetero- and homo-diatomic molecules with PECs possessing complex 'exotic' structure.

Ascorbic Acid and Graphene Oxide Exposure in the Model Organism Can Change the Reproduction Potential.

The use of nanoparticles in the industry carries the risk of their release into the environment. Based on the presumption that the primary graphene oxide (GO) toxicity mechanism is reactive oxygen species production in the cell, the question arises as to whether well-known antioxidants can protect the cell or significantly reduce the effects of GO. This study focused on the possible remedial effect of vitamin C in intoxicated with GO for whole lives.
