Proliferative Activity and Viability of Fibroblast and Glioblastoma Cell on Various Types of Carbon Nanotubes

The effects of single-walled and multiwalled carbon nanotubes on proliferative activity and viability of human embryo fibroblasts and glioblastoma cells were studied. Low cytotoxic activity of single-walled carbon tubes was demonstrated. Possible mechanisms of nanotube effects on cell growth are dis...
