The genotoxic potential of two products of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (coded as N-MWCNTs, diameter of 44nm/BET surface area of 69m2/g and MWNT-7, diameter of 70nm/BET surface area of 23m2/g) was evaluated using a battery of genotoxicity assays, comprising a bacterial reverse mutation test, an in vitro mammalian chromosomal aberration test, and a mammalian erythrocytes micronucleus test. Neither type exerted mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, and TA1537, or in Escherichia coli WP2uvrA, in the absence or presence of metabolic activation. The products of MWCNTs did not increase the number of structural chromosomal aberrations either, regardless of metabolic activation, though they increased the number of numerical chromosomal aberrations, one slightly and the other distinctly, in the absence of metabolic activation. In ICR mice, the two products did not affect the proportion of immature erythrocytes, the total proportion of erythrocytes, or the number of micronuclei in immature erythrocytes.
