Comparison of fetal toxicity of various multi-wall carbon nanotubes in mice

Abstract: The fetal toxicities of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with various sizes were compared in CD1(ICR) mice. MWCNTs were suspended in 2% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution in phosphate-buffered saline. On day 9 of gestation, dams were administered a single intraperitoneal dose of MWCNTs (4 mg/kg body weight), while dams in the control group were administered vehicle (10 mL/kg body weight). The rectal temperatures of the dams were monitored 2 h after administaration to asses statuses of the dams. The da… Show more

“…In addition, silver nanoparticles decrease oestrogen plasma levels, increasing the number of resorbed fetuses ( Campagnolo et al, 2017 ) and affecting embryonic growth ( Austin et al, 2016 ). Carbon nanotubes also decrease the number of live fetuses per dam ( Fujitani et al, 2015 ), the number of blood vessels on placenta, and increase the number of abortions ( Qi et al, 2014 ).…”
