Despite the need to know how nanotubes may affect or cause toxicity for live organisms, only a small number of studies have been dedicated to this problem. Furthermore, results of these studies have been inconsistent and not fully understood. The data obtained show that crude nanotubes possess a certain level of toxicity (in both in vivo and in vitro studies) associated mainly with the presence of metals, which are used as catalysts in nanotube synthesis. For purified nanotubes minimal toxic effects were seen even at high concentrations, and chemically functionalized nanotubes used for drug delivery did not show any toxic effects.
Kharlamova, and V. Fomenko Abstract The present paper discusses classification of nano-objects, which is based on their size, morphology and chemical nature. The subject of nanochemistry includes those nano-objects whose chemical properties depend on size and morphology, such as spheroidal molecules, anisotropic (2D) and isotropic (1D) nanoparticles, nano-clusters and nanophases. Nanophase is a nano-dimensional part of the microphase whose properties depend on its size. The potential health hazards of nano-objects are associated with their capability of penetrating the body through inhalation, digestion or the skin.
