Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer in the world – cellulose originating from waste textiles has the potential to be recycled into valuable future applications. Cellulose nanocrystals, CNCs, are the crystalline regions of cellulose fibrils and can be separated...
Immunomodulatory Effects of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Homo sapiens THP-1 Macrophages
This study examined the effects of low cytotoxic concentrations of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the gene expression of thirteen selected cytokine genes in THP-1 macrophages. The production and applications of MWCNTs are augmenting, so their hazardous potential on...
