Interactions of Carbon Nanotubes and Carbon Nanohorns with a Model Membrane Layer and Lung Surfactant In Vitro
A broader use of carbon nanomaterials increases the risk of their inhalation as aerosol dispersed in the air. Inhaled nanometer-sized particles are known to penetrate to the pulmonary region where they interact with the lung surfactant as the first barrier they meet and eventually penetrate to the s...
