In Vitro Cytotoxicity Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on Spermatogonia Cells

In Vitro Cytotoxicity Effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on Spermatogonia Cells

Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are a type of metal oxide nanoparticle with an extensive use in biomedicine. Several studies have focused on the biosafety of ZnO NPs, since their size and surface area favor entrance and accumulation in the body, which can induce toxic effects. In previous studies...
