纳米材料的环境毒理学研究进展

纳米科学与信息科学和生命科学并列,已经成为21世纪的三大支柱科学领域。随着纳米技术的迅速发展及纳米材料的大量增多,纳米技术的安全性问题正引起世界范围的关注。纳米材料可以通过多种途径进入自然环境,可能引起生物体的毒性效应。该文综述了纳米材料的特点、生物和环境效应,并对几种纳米材料的环境毒理学的研究结果进行了阐述,并提出了一些问题与研究方向。

The Advancement of Environmental Toxicology Research of Nanomaterials

Nano-science, information science and life science has become three main pillars of science in the 21st century. With the rapid development of nanotechnology, the safety of nanomaterials has raised great concern. Nanomaterials can enter the environment through multiple routes, even affecting toxic effects of organisms. The characteristics of nano-materials, biological and environmental effects were summarized in this paper, and introduced some research result, which is the environmental toxicology of nano-materials. At last, some question were raised, and proposed some research direction.
