Bioavailability of metallic impurities in carbon nanotubes is greatly enhanced by ultrasonication

Metallic impurities within carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are considered as the main cause of their toxicity. Ultrasonication is a common procedure used to purify and obtain homogeneous dispersions of CNTs as well as to mix them with other components for further processing into composites. Herein, the infl...
