Study of the genotoxicity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in human cell lines from the airway epithelia: implications for the regulatory testing of nanomaterials

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been employed in energy appliances and electronics and are the most widely used organic materials for tissue engineering applications. One major concern for human health is the similarity, in size and shape, between multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and asbestos fib...
