Reference: 1) "Titanium Dioxide in our everyday life; is it safe?" - ResearchGate (https://www.researchgate.net/publicat...) (Page 7 under the subheading 'The use of TiO2 in consumer products') 2) "Use of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in tampons" - EuroNanoMed (http://www.euronanomed.net/wp-content...)
