Is there a link between the physicochemical characteristics of multiwalled carb...
Louro, Henriqueta; Pinhão, Mariana; Tavares, Ana; Vital, Nádia; Borges, Teresa; Gouveia, Helena; Silva, Maria JoãoThe wide applicability of manufactured nanomaterials (NM) has led to an increased risk of human exposure and environmental dissemination. In particular, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) have been developed for industrial purposes, but the same properties that render these materials so attractive may also cause higher toxicity. However, contradictory results concerning their genotoxicity and carcinogenicity...
