Commercially available boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) and their purified form (pBNNTs) were dispersed in aqueous solutions with various dispersants, and their cytotoxicity and drug encapsulation capacity were monitored. Our data suggest that pBNNTs showed an average increase in dispersibility of 37.3% in aqueous solution in the presence of 10 different dispersants. In addition, 100 μg of pBNNTs induced an average decrease in cytotoxicity of 27.4% compared to same amount of BNNTs in normal cell ...[more]
