Single-walled carbon-nanohorns improve biocompatibility over nanotubes by triggering less protein-initiated pyroptosis and apoptosis in macrophages

Carbon-nanohorns have a unique morphology and structure yet little is known about the biocompatibility. Here, the authors investigate the biocompatibility and bio-interaction of carbon nanohorns, compare them to carbon nanotubes and show the superior biocompatibility and safety of the nanohorns.
