Abstract:
Magnetic ionic liquids (MILs) are new solvents with an interesting broad of applications however their toxicity is still an open issue. In this paper we report the toxicity of [C(8)MIM] and [Choline-C(n)] based magnetic ionic liquids assessed in two human cell lines: normal skin fibroblasts (CRL-1502) and colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (CaCo-2), acquiring this last characteristics of human enterocytes after differentiation. The results showed that [CoCl(4)] and [MnCl(4)] are more prone to generate cytotoxicity.
