General description

Application


  • Inhalable Porous Particles for Lung Drug Delivery: Research on inhalable porous particles of cristobalite demonstrates significant advancements in respiratory drug delivery systems, specifically targeting tuberculosis. These findings emphasize the crucial role of respirable cristobalite in enhancing the efficacy of pulmonary treatments (Campos Pacheco et al., 2024).

  • Impact of Crystalline Silica on Pulmonary Health: A study exploring the effects of crystalline silica-induced inflammation and autoimmunity highlights the importance of respirable cristobalite in understanding occupational health risks and developing protective strategies against lung diseases (Heine et al., 2024).

  • Workplace Exposure to Respirable Dust: Analysis of respirable dust and cristobalite concentrations in workers at a brick kiln in Nepal provides insights into occupational exposure and its health implications, aiding in the development of better industrial hygiene practices (Beard et al., 2024).

  • Asbestos and Cristobalite Analysis: Research on distinguishing asbestos from its nonasbestiform analogues, including cristobalite, through FTIR and multivariate data analysis, underscores the significance of high-purity cristobalite in environmental and material safety studies (Lee et al., 2024).

  • Occupational Exposure Limits Comparison: A comparative study on the occupational exposure limits of coal dust, which includes cristobalite, between China and other countries, highlights the global variations and the need for standardized safety protocols in industrial settings (Li and Zhu, 2024).
