In vitro and in vivo safety evaluation of CNPs. A Hemolysis assay in chicken RBCs: 1. PBS control; 2–6, increasing concentrations of CNPs; 7, Triton-X 100 control. B Microscopy images of chicken RBCs incubated with PBS, different concentrations of CNPs, or Triton-X 100. C Effect of CNPs on chicken lungs. Chickens (n = 3 in each group) were intranasally administered with either PBS or CNPs, and after 5 days, their lungs were analyzed for histological changes. The experiment was repeated thrice. The results shown represent one independent experiment.
