Abstract
⺠Nanosilver ingestion reduces GSH levels and increases SOD levels in Drosophila larvae. ⺠Nanotitanium dioxide ingestion has no effect on GSH levels and increases SOD levels in Drosophila larvae. ⺠Nanosilver ingestion has toxic effects on development, survivorship, and mating success in Drosophila. ⺠Nanotitanium dioxide has no effect on development or survivorship in Drosophila. ⺠Vitamin C fully or partially reverses each toxic effect of nanosilver ingestion in Drosophila.
