Two-week Toxicity of Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes by Whole-body Inhalation Exposure in Rats
To evaluate pulmonary toxicity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), F344 rats of both sexes were exposed by inhalation to 0.2, 1 or 5 mg/m(3) MWCNT aerosol for 6 h/day, 5 days/week for 2 weeks using a whole-body exposure system. At the end of the 2-week exposure period, one-half of the rats were necropsied, and at the end of an additional 4-week postexposure period, the remaining rats wer...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiopulmonary Toxicity Following Oral Administration of Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes in Wistar Rats
Objective(s): Carbon nanotubes have unique mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties, with potential different applications in nanomedicine, electronics, and other industries. These new applications of carbon nanotubes in different industries lead to the increased exposure risk of nanomaterials to human. Up to now, all aspects of carbon nanotubes toxicity are not com...

متن کاملInhalation toxicity of multi-wall carbon nanotubes in rats exposed for three months
In a recent paper published in Toxicological Sciences, "Inhalation Toxicity of Multi-wall Carbon Nanotubes in Rats Exposed for Three Months", a team of European researchers have reported the findings of a 90-day inhalation toxicity study of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in rats. This study led by Robert Landsiedel, Head of the Short Term Toxicology Department at BASF SE in Germany not ...
متن کاملExtrapulmonary translocation of ultrafine carbon particles following whole-body inhalation exposure of rats.
Studies with intravenously injected ultrafine particles have shown that the liver is the major organ of their uptake from the blood circulation. Measuring translocation of inhaled ultrafine particles to extrapulmonary organs via the blood compartment is hampered by methodological difficulties (i.e., label may come off, partial solubilization) and analytical limitations (measurement of very smal...
