Investigation of Genotoxicity of Gold Nanoparticles Prepared by the Electric Spark Dispersion Method

Abstract: The paper presents the results of investigations of genotoxicity and morphological characteristics of nanoscale gold particles prepared by the electric spark dispersion method in a water medium. To investigate the properties we used comet assay, transmission electron microscopy, thermal desorption of nitrogen (BET). It was revealed, gold particles did not cause DNA damage at low concentrations (0.01 - 0.1 mg/ml) and detectable level of genotoxicity of gold nanoparticles is observed at concentrations of 0.3 mg/… Show more

“…This was indirectly confirmed by earlier results of the nanoparticles genotoxic testing and scientific literature (Jena et al, 2012;Plotnikov et al, 2015). Most researchers agree with the opinion that the leading factor of the DNA damage is the oxidative stress induced by the nanoparticles for in vivo and in vitro applications.…”

“…The resulting nanostructured product can be used in designing a new filter system for water purification. Detail process description and confirmation nanoscale size of the materials prepared by this method, are reflected in works [9][10][11] . The aim of this work was to crate and study the physicochemical and sorption properties of new modified sorbents with nanostructured surface based on aluminum and iron, obtained by the electro-dispersion method.…”
