Abstract
⺠This study investigated the neuro-safety of tungsten carbide nanoparticles (nano-WC). ⺠The effect of nano-WC on CA1 neurons was investigated using patch-clamp technique. ⺠Results showed that nano-WC can decrease amplitudes of INa and action potential. ⺠That effect might be one of initial signs of neurotoxicity caused by nano-WC.
