Carbon Nanotubes

This book presents an overall, unitary view of the carbon nanoparticle world, in which both the positive and negative aspects of these recently discovered nanomaterials are critically described and elucidated. It includes an exhaustive account of C-nanotubes toxicity, mechanisms of toxicity, and biocompatibility towards human and animal organisms as well as the entire biological environment. Contributors include experts in the study of materials biocompatibility and toxicity, mainly because the book concerns carbon-nanoparticles toxicity.
