Inhaled Carbon Nanotubes Reach the Sub-Pleural Tissue in Mice

Carbon nanotubes have fibre-like shape1 and stimulate inflammation at the surface of the peritoneum when injected into the abdominal cavity of mice2, raising concerns that inhaled nanotubes3 may cause pleural fibrosis and/or mesothelioma4. Here we show that multi-walled carbon nanotubes reach the su...
