Pulmonary toxicity and translocation of gallium phosphide nanowires to secondary organs following pulmonary exposure in mice

Pulmonary toxicity and translocation of gallium phosphide nanowires to secondary organs following pulmonary exposure in mice

Abstract Background III-V semiconductor nanowires are envisioned as being integrated in optoelectronic devices in the near future. However, the perspective of mass production of these nanowires raises concern for human safety due to their asbestos- and carbon nanotube-like properties, including thei...
