Changes in reproductive hormones secretion involved in quantum dots-induced reproductive toxicity in adult male mice

ABSTRACT

Background and Aims: quantum dots [QDs], as colloidal nanocrystalline semiconductors, present QD wavelengths in terms of biomedical assays and imaging, though the high toxicity of their core demands to be taken into consideration. Investigating this subject is taken into account as an important concept concerning use of these nanoparticles in the medical applications
