• nanorods, which were applied to the basolateral side of the cells, has a recognizable influence on the growth behavior and thus the coating should be carefully selected for biomedical applications of nanoparticles. Keywords: basolateral application; cytotoxicity; electric cell–substrate impedance sensing
