The biological activity of nanoparticles depends on the size, concentration, and chemical composition. Nanoparticles of copper and zinc oxides with a size of 20-80 nm are accumulated in the structure of plants and inhibit the processes of growth and development. Nanoparticles of iron, copper and cobalt metals with a size of 20-100 nm have biocompatibility and play the role of growth stimulants. All the studied nanoparticles are not toxic and can be used for contact with living systems: plants and animals, but differently affect their growth dynamics, morphological and biochemical parameters, and oxidative modification of rat thymus proteins. The effect of ultrafine copper powders at a dose of 10-3 mg/kg and 10-1 mg/kg on the oxidative modification of rat thymus proteins was studied. It was detected that the oxidative modification of proteins increases dose-dependently with the predominance of protein molecule fragmentation processes for nanoparticles of copper and zinc oxides. Nanoparticles of copper and cobalt metals in doses of 10–3 mg/kg and 10–1 mg/kg show a reversible nature of oxidative stress. This conclusion is consistent with morphological and biochemical parameters of rat blood under the influence of copper and cobalt nanoparticles, with sizes of 35-60 nm, cobalt 20 nm, and copper and zinc oxides.
Keywords:nanometals, biochemical and morphological indicators, rats, toxicity, accumulation, plants, oxidative modification.
