A Toxicologic Review of Quantum Dots: Toxicity Depends on Physicochemical and Environmental Factors
As a growing applied science, nanotechnology has considerable global socioeconomic value, and the benefits afforded by nanoscale materials and processes are expected to have significant impacts on almost all industries and all areas of society. A diverse array of engineered nanoscale products and processes have emerged [e.g., carbon nanotubes, fullerene derivatives, and quantum dots (QDs)], wit...
متن کاملToxicity Comparative of CdSe:ZnS Quantum Dots on Testis, and Liver in Adult Mice
Quantum dots are new types of fluorescent materials for biological labeling. As a result, QDs toxicity study is an essential requirement for future clinical applications. Therefore, the cytotoxic CdSe:ZnS quantum dots effects on some organs in mice are presented in this study. In this work, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg doses of CdSe:ZnS quantum dots were injected to 32 adult male mice. Structural and op...

متن کاملP-156: A Study about Toxicity of CdSe Quantum Dots on Male Sexual System of Mice and Controlling This Toxicity by ZnS Coverage in Immature Mice
Background: Quantum dots are commonly composed of cadmium contained semiconductors. Cadmium is potentially hazardous but toxicity of such quantum dots is not yet systematically investigated. On the other hand, in vitro studies have shown almost complete control of CdSe induced cytotoxicity by ZnS coverage. Toxicity of CdSe quantum dots and controlling this toxicity by ZnS coverage in immature m...
متن کاملA comparative study about toxicity of CdSe quantum dots on reproductive system development of mice and controlling this toxicity by ZnS coverage
Objective(s): Medicinal benefits of quantum dots have been proved in recent years but there is little known about their toxicity especially in vivo toxicity. In order to use quantum dots in medical applications, studies ontheir in vivo toxicity is important. Materials and Methods:CdSe:ZnS quantum dots were injected in 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg doses to male mice10 days later, mice were sacrificed ...
