Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO<sub>2</sub> NPs) are manufactured worldwide. Once they arrive in the soil environment, they can endanger living organisms. Hence, monitoring and assessing the effects of these nanoparticles is required. We focus on the <i>Eisenia andrei</i> earthworm immune cells exposed to sublethal concentrations of TiO<sub>2</sub> NPs (1, 10, and 100 µg/mL) for 2, 6, and 24 h. TiO<sub>2</sub> NPs at all concentrations did not affect cell viability. Further, TiO<sub>2</sub> ...[more]
