Abstract
⺠There is rising concern regarding the potential health risks of nanomaterials. ⺠Few studies have investigated the effect of nanomaterials on the reproductive system. ⺠Here, we evaluated the intra-testicular distribution of nanosilica particles. ⺠We showed that nanosilica particles can penetrate the blood-testis barrier. ⺠These data provide basic information on ways to create safer nanomaterials.
