چکیده
Though nanomaterials have wide applications in various fields, they also have some toxic effects in them known as nanotoxic effects. This paper discusses about the various causes and effects of nanotoxicology in the field of medicine, in female (mice) reproductive system, on fetal organogenesis and morphology and toxicity of nanoparticles in zebrafish embryo.

Assessment of Mercury Bioaccumulation in Zebra Cichlid (Cichlasoma Nigrofasciatum) Exposed to Sublethal Concentrations of Permethrin
Background: Aquatic ecosystems are frequently subjected to contamination by toxic heavy metals and pesticides, yet very little is known about the influence of pesticides on bioaccumulation of heavy metals in aquatic organisms. Mercury is a toxic metal with no known biological benefit to organisms. Bioavailability of mercury in aquatic environments depends on biological and non-biological parame...
متن کاملEffect of TiO2 nanoparticles on the acute toxicity of Ag nanoparticles in zebra fish (Danio rerio)
The potential entry of nanomaterials into the water ecosystems increased following their increasing use. In addition to the direct effects of nanomaterials on aquatic organisms, they also affect the toxicity of other pollutants on aquatic organisms. This study assessed the presence of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nTiO2) in water on acute toxicity of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on zebra fish...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Toxic Effects of Clozapine in Zebra fish (Danio rerio) embryos with the Fish Embryo Toxicity Test
Clozapine (an atypical antipsychotic drug) is indicated in treatment-refractory schizophrenia. Antipsychotics have been reported to have cardiotoxic effects in humans.The zebra fish (Danio rerio) is a tropical cyprinid used in toxicological research. In the present study, the toxicity of clozapine was evaluated in zebra fish embryos with the aid of the fish embryo toxicity test (FET). The endpo...

Background: There is much evidence indicating that natural substances from edible and medicinal plants possess powerful antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities. The objective of the present study was to investigate the potential hepatoprotective effect of silymarin in fish exposed to malathion. Methods: Zebra cichlid fish were allocated into five groups of which one group received norma...
متن کاملInvestigation of Acute Toxicity Diazinon, Deltamethrin, Butachlor and pretilachlor on Zebra Cichlid (Cryptoheros nigrofasciatus)
Background: The presence of pesticide due to the huge demand for agricultural purposes is very prevalent in surface waters of Iran. These pesticides could finally accumulate in aquatic ecosystems and have been proved to have toxic effects on aquatic animals. The aim of this study was to assess the acute toxicity of Diazinon, Deltamethrin, Butachlor and Pretilachlor on Zebra Cichlid (Cryptoheros...
