They chose chickens because these animals absorb iron into their bodies similarly to humans, and they are also similarly sensitive to micronutrient deficiencies. The researchers used commercially available, 50-nanometer polystyrene carboxylated particles that are generally considered safe for human consumption. They found that following acute exposure, a few minutes to a few hours after consumption, both the absorption of iron in the in vitro cells and the chickens decreased. However, following exposure of 2 milligrams per kilogram for two weeks\u2014a slower, more chronic intake\u2014the structure of the intestinal villi began to change and increase in surface area. This was an effective physiological remodeling that led to increased iron absorption.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">The researchers noted that in some sense this intestinal villi remodeling was positive because it shows the body adapts to challenges. But it serves to underscore how such particles, which have been widely studied and considered safe, cause barely detectable changes that could lead to, for example, over-absorption of other, harmful compounds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">&#8220;Nanoparticles are entering our environment in many different ways,&#8221; the researchers said. &#8220;We have some assurance that at a gross level they are not harmful, but there may be more subtle effects that we need to worry about.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">Fonte &#8211; Food Product Design de 17 de fevereiro de 2012<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New research published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology has found exposure to engineered nanoparticles found in foods and pharmaceuticals may be more harmful to health than previously thought.
