Radiotracer Methods for Nanotoxicology Studies
With the rapid development of nanoscience and nanotechnology, a wide variety of manufactured nanomaterials are now used in commodities, pharmaceutics, cosmetics, biomedical products, and industries. While nanomaterials possess more novel and unique physicochemical properties than bulk materials, they also have an unpredictable impact on human health. In nanotoxicology studies, it is essential to know the basic behavior of these newly designed materials in vivo, i. e. absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Radiotracer methods are especially well suited to such studies and have got the chance to demonstrate their enchantment. In this paper, radiolabeling methods for carbon nanomaterials, metallic and metal oxide nanoparticles, etc. are summarized and some applications of the radiolabeled nanomaterials in toxicology studies that carried out in our laboratory are reported.
