Critical role of surface chemical modifications induced by length shortening on multi-walled carbon nanotubes-induced toxicity

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Given the increasing use of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in composite materials and their possible expansion to new areas such as nanomedicine which will both lead to higher human exposure, a better understanding of their potential to cause adverse effects on human hea...
