  • First Online:
Biomedical Applications and Toxicity of Nanomaterials

Abstract

Titania or Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is an inorganic substance of commercial importance and has a wide range of applications. It has improved functioning in the area of photocatalytic uses to remove various organic contaminants from air and water and is widely used as a dielectric and pigment in paints (Ziental et al. 2020). It is also thought to be a viable option for photoelectrochemical energy generation. Titania, due to its biocompatible and nontoxic nature, is used in biomedical sciences, particularly in bone tissue engineering and pharmaceuticals (Jafari et al. 2020).
