Asbestos-like pathogenicity of long carbon nanotubes alleviated by chemical functionalization
This was a short-term experiment in mice testing whether chemically modifying long multi-walled carbon nanotubes changes the asbestos-like reactions they cause. The authors took long, unmodified nanotubes previously used by another research group…
