Single wall carbon nanotubes enter cells by endocytosis and not membrane penetration

BACKGROUND: Carbon nanotubes are increasingly being tested for use in cellular applications. Determining the mode of entry is essential to control and regulate specific interactions with cells, to understand toxicological effects of nanotubes, and to develop nanotube-based cellular technologies. We...
