Biological effects of carbon nanotubes generated in forest wildfire ecosystems rich in resinous trees on native plants

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have a broad range of applications and are generally considered human-engineered nanomaterials. However, carbon nanostructures have been found in ice cores and oil wells, suggesting that nature may provide appropriate conditions for CNT synthesis. During forest wildfires, mat...
