[Histopathology of epididymis in adult NMRI male mice treated with zinc oxide nanoparticles]

ABSTRACT

Background: The rapid development of nanotechnology has given rise to broad applications of nanoparticles [NPs] in biomedicine. This material is distributed in all parts of the body, rapidly after injection, by circulation and reach to all organs and tissues. Before their application as medicine, toxic effects of them on human and animals should be assessed. In this study, the effects of zinc oxide nanoparticle on histopathological changes of epididymis in adult male mice was investigated
