Effects of nanomaterial physicochemical properties on in vivo toxicity (2009, methodology): “Arc-discharge, laser ablation, chemical vapor deposition, and high-pressure carbon monoxide synthesis are methods commonly used to fabricate CNT [69,73].”
Inhalation vs. aspiration of single-walled carbon nanotubes in C57BL/6 mice: inflammation, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and mutagenesis. (2008, background): “studies that would avoid the potential for artifactual effects of large mats and agglomerates formed during instillation exposure procedures (10).”
Monitoring Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Exposure in Carbon Nanotube Research Facility (2008, methodology): “…concentrations; (2) MWCNTs can be counted like asbestos and measured for the number of tube/cc using TEM, despite the unavailability of supplementary light microscopy, as suggested by Donaldson et al. (2006); and (3) conventional engineering control measures work well for MWCNT exposure control.”
Circulation and long-term fate of functionalized, biocompatible single-walled carbon nanotubes in mice probed by Raman spectroscopy (2008, result): “In contrast to a previous study of nonfunctionalized pristine carbon nanotubes causing fiber toxicity to mice (37), our well functionalized SWNTs are highly biocompatibility for in vivo applications.”
Drug delivery and nanoparticles: Applications and hazards (2008, background): “…years a number of papers have described the toxicology of newly engineered nanomaterials, including fullerenes (Sayes et al 2005), carbon nanotubes (Donaldson et al 2006), quantum dots (Hardman 2006) and have illustrated that apart from size and surface area, many more parameters describing the…”
Interfacing carbon nanotubes (CNT) with plants: enhancement of growth, water and ionic nutrient uptake in maize (Zea mays) and implications for nanoagriculture (2014, background): “Most studies of CNTs in the biosciences have focused on their influence on animal and human cells (Donaldson et al. 2006; Martinelli et al. 2012).”
Better safe than sorry: Understanding the toxicological properties of inorganic nanoparticles manufactured for biomedical applications. (2010, background): “However, the synthesis of SWCNT requires the use of metal catalysts, which can be toxic themselves, and non-purified samples of SWCNT may contain up to 15% residual metal by mass [11].”
Nanodiamond Particles: Properties and Perspectives for Bioapplications (2009, neutral): “However, even within the same animal model, there has been a great divergence in toxicity results for pulmonary studies of carbon nanotubes in animals 243 , 244 , 245 , 262 , 321 , 322 , 323 or C60 in aquatic species and animals.”
