Chitosan (CH) is a natural product produced from the shells of crustaceans. Both CH and Chitosan nanoparticles (CHNPs) have recently been used in various pharmaceutical and biomedical applications. The present study aimed to evaluate the potency of chitosan or chitosan nanoparticles in reducing the negative effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD)- induced haematotoxicity and nephrotoxicity in albino rats. Methods: Twenty adult male ... Read more
