Abstract
⺠MWCNT induces chromosomal aberrations, DNA fragmentation and apoptosis in Allium. ⺠Presence of “black dots” in Allium root cells confirmed internalization of MWCNT. ⺠MWCNT induced DNA damage and apoptosis in human lymphocytes. ⺠MN and comet assays in bone marrow cells in vivo revealed genotoxicity. ⺠Study results indicate crosslink formation by MWCNT with DNA.
