DNA strand break levels in the liver tissue (% tail DNA) detected by comet assay following intravenous injection of 162 μg of TiO2, CeO2 or CB NPs measured 1, 28 and 180 days after exposure. Particle exposed groups n = 9, vehicle control n = 9. All values are presented as mean + SD. Asterisks (***) denote P ≤ 0.001 of DNA SB level in exposed groups versus vehicle control. Hashtags (###) denote P ≤ 0.001 of DNA SB level in TiO2 vs CB groups. Crosses (†††) denote P ≤ 0.001 of DNA SB level in CeO2 vs CB groups
