The Dispersion State of Tangled Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes Affects Their Cytotoxicity

The Dispersion State of Tangled Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes Affects Their Cytotoxicity

The medical applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have garnered much attention. However, evaluating the safety of CNTs remains difficult, and no consensus has been reached. Moreover, assessing the biosafety of multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs), which can become tangled during manufacturing, is challengin...
