A predictive toxicology approach to characterize potential respiratory effects of functionalized nanocellulose fibres in a co-culture system

Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) have an enormous potential for industrial and biomedical applications, assuming a great economic value. Because other nanofibres, e.g. carbon nanotubes (CNT), have revealed toxicity 1,2, there is a need to comprehensively evaluate the toxic potential of CNF along the valu...
