Cerium oxide nanoparticles: Structure, applications, reactivity, and eco-toxicology
In this chapter, the physical, chemical, and ecotoxicological features of nanometric cerium oxide will be discussed on the basis of the recent research. In contrast with other oxides such as SiO2, ZnO, ZrO2, or TiO2 with relevant industrial applications, ceria presents a unique redox chemistry that...

In this chapter, the physical, chemical, and ecotoxicological features of nanometric cerium oxide will be discussed on the basis of the recent research.

In the past, several studies were strictly focused on the exploration of its eventual damage to environment and human health. CeO2, as other rare earths oxides, is basically a low toxicity substance[ 1] and nowadays there is vast and increasing evidence pointing to its potential role as protective compound in terms of human health.
