Deconvoluting hepatic processing of carbon nanotubes

Deconvoluting hepatic processing of carbon nanotubes

Application of carbon nanotubes as drug delivery carriers is stalled by uncertainties over their distribution and toxicity in vivo. Here, the authors use animal models to show that, while the bulk of nanotubes is renally cleared, a fraction can be eliminated through an alternative hepatobiliary path...
