Emergent Intrusion of Nanotechnology and Nanotoxicology in Reproductive Biology

In the last decade, nanotechnology has been extensively introduced for biomedical applications opening a new hope in medicine as well as in other sciences. In this review article an emerging use of nanotechnology in reproductive medicine and reproductive biology has been described. Nanoparticles being of small sizes has rather more advantages and therefore are more preferred nanotechnological tool. They are successfully used for the treatment and imaging of reproductive system-related cancers. Contrarily, increased application of nanomaterials and nanotechnology and their exposure has become a critical issue raising the concerns about their potential toxicity.It is therefore indicated that the nano-based methods are innovative but at the same time potentially controversial approaches.Exposure of females to such toxicity may lead to fatal impacts on both female reproductivity and fetal development. Thus, in the present paper, we will highlight and discuss the nanotoxic effects of nano materials on human reproductive biology.
