“…However, fullerenes are hydrophobic, which limits the possibilities of their direct use in biomedicine [193] It is possible to obtain their aqueous dispersions [194][195][196][197][198][199][200] and associates with organic compounds [200][201][202][203][204][205]. One of the ways of modifying the surface of fullerenes provides hydroxylated derivatives such as fullerenols [195,200,205,206,208]. The specific functionalization of their surface is achieved through the use of amphiphilic polymers, amino acids, carboxylic acids, and biologically active preparations that identify molecules [206,207].…”

Nanoscale systems occupy the most important place among the vehicles intended for targeted drug delivery. Such vehicles are considered in this review. Attention is paid to the nanocluster polyoxometalate-based systems which are promising for transdermal iontophoretic transport. In this relation, and due to the characteristics of the skin as a transport medium, the problems of the transfer processes modeling are considered.

“…Recent investigations have been shown that carbon-based engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) have the potential to increase crop productivity and protection [11][12][13]. Unique characteristics of ENMs, such as a higher surface area to volume ratio and reactivity compared with equivalent bulk materials, allow their application in different technologies [12,14]. Among carbon-based ENMs, fullerenols [C 60 (OH) x , x = 18-36] have attracted great interest [15].…”

The unique properties of carbon-based nanomaterials, including fullerenol, have attracted great interest in agricultural and environmental applications. Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for major metabolic processes, for which a shortage causes chlorosis and reduces the yield of many crops cultivated worldwide. In the current study, the metabolic responses of Cucumis sativus (a Strategy I plant) to fullerenol treatments were investigated depending on the Fe status of plants. Cucumber plants were grown hydroponically, either with [+FeII (ferrous) and +FeIII (ferric)] or in Fe-free (−FeII and −FeIII) nutrient solution, with (+F) or without (−F) a fullerenol supply. Iron species-dependent effects were observed in either Fe-fed or Fe-starved plants, with alteration of metabolites involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, organic acids, lipophilic compounds. Metabolic perturbations triggered by fullerenol in the FeIII-treated plants were in the opposite kind from those in the FeII-treated plants. Whereas in the FeIII-fed plants, fullerenol activated the metabolisation of carbohydrates and amino acids, in the FeII-fed plants, fullerenol activated the metabolisation of lipophilic compounds and repressed the metabolisation of carbohydrates and amino acids. In FeIII-deficient plants, fullerenol stimulated the metabolism of C3 carboxylates and lipophilic compounds while repressing the metabolism of amino acids, hexoses and dicarboxylates, while in FeII-deficient plants, activations of the metabolism of amino acids and dicarboxylates and repression of sterol metabolism by fullerenol were observed. The results indicated that the valence state of Fe sources is of importance for re-programming metabolome responses in cucumber to fullerenol either in Fe-sufficient or Fe-deficient conditions. These investigations are significant for understanding fullerenol interactions and risk assessment in plants with different Fe statuses.

“…Among these, carbon-based nanomaterials have increasing environmental and agricultural applications in recent years [21]. Fullerenes are an allotropic modification of carbon with unique structural and electronic properties that enable numerous application fields, including agricultural applications [21][22][23][24]. Fullerene C 60 and its water-soluble derivates, such as fullerenol or fullerol (F), are the best-investigated fullerenes.…”

The water-soluble fullerenols are novel carbon-based nanomaterials with unique properties, which afford them with wide agricultural applications. Iron (Fe) deficiency is the most common and widespread nutrition disorder affecting plants. Foliar Fe treatments of plants have been carried out with solutions devoid of fullerenol. In this study, the role of fullerenol [C 60 (OH) 22-24 ] in alleviation of Fe deficiency in Cucumis sativus (a Strategy I plant) via foliar fertilization was investigated. Cucumber plants were grown hydroponically, either with (Fe) or in Fe-free (−Fe) nutrient solution. The following foliar spray treatments were applied: fullerenol at final concentrations of 1 (F1) and 10 (F10) mg L-1 ; Fe(II)SO 4 ·7H 2 O; Fe(II)-EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid); and Fe(II)-F1 and Fe(II)-F10. The best used compound was a combination of Fe(II)-sulfate with fullerenol, especially Fe-F1. The addition of fullerenol to Fe(II)-sulfate solutions significantly increased leaf-active Fe (extracted by an Fe(II) chelator) and re-greening at the site of application. The fullerenol-induced mutual influences did not appear when fullerenol was sprayed alone, suggesting a beneficial role of Fe(II)-fullerenol interactions in the penetration of Fe(II) in the leaves and re-greening under Fe-limited conditions. The results are of importance to enhancing the potential of foliar Fe fertilization as the commonly used strategy for ameliorating Fe deficiency and improving crop yield and quality.
