Trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TEER) from days 0–12 following treatment and removal of apical medium. Measurements are expressed as ohms*cm2 and were recorded every 2 days prior to feeding, starting with the treatment medium at day 0 immediately before transfer to ALI. All cultures, regardless of treatment, appeared to increase in TEER rapidly over the first week, then plateau between 700 and 900 ohms*cm2. No statistically significant differences (by ANOVA) in TEER progression between treatments were found at the doses used in this study, despite the observed effects of MWCNTs on ciliary differentiation. Data compiled from 3 replicate wells from a single donor. Bars represent mean ± standard deviation (SD)
