Toxicity of Ionic Liquids: Eco(cyto)activity as Complicated, but Unavoidable Parameter for Task-Specific Optimization
TL;DR: It is shown that biological activity and cytotoxicity of ionic liquids dramatically depend on the nature of a biological system, and a careful selection of biological activity data is a must for the correct assessment of chemical technologies involving ionic liquid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental Impact of Ionic Liquids: Recent Advances in (Eco)toxicology and (Bio)degradability.
TL;DR: The review structure aims to present a potential sequence of events that can occur upon discharging ionic liquids into the environment and the potential long-term consequences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of the toxic effects of ionic liquids
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the key findings of toxicological information of ionic liquids, collect some toxicity data of ILs to different species, and explain the influence of IL structure on their toxic properties.

Growth inhibition and effect on photosystem by three imidazolium chloride ionic liquids in rice seedlings.
TL;DR: The results demonstrated that imidazolium chloride ILs are phytotoxic to rice growth and their photosystem, the toxicity increased as the alkyl chain length increased with the following order: [OMIM]Cl<[DMIM] cl<[C12M IM]Cl.

The genotoxic and cytotoxic effects of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride in soil on Vicia faba seedlings
TL;DR: The present results showed that the growth of V. faba seedlings may be seriously inhibited when the IL concentrations were higher than 500 mg kg(-1), which indicated that [C4mim]Cl may have genotoxicity and cytotoxicity on V.faba seedling.
