Complete transformation of ZnO and CuO nanoparticles in culture medium and lymphocyte cells during toxicity testing.

abstract：:Dose-response by in vitro testing is only valid if the fraction of the particle dose that deposits onto adherent cells is known. Modeling tools such as the 'distorted grid' (DG) code are common practices to predict that fraction. As another challenge, workflow efficiency depends on parallelized sample preparation, for...
