This article aims at alerting scientists working with nanoparticles or microparticles about the specific adverse reactions due to the intravascular pulmonary macrophages present in pigs and other cloven-hoof animals, but not in humans. The history of a 25-year old study of an ultrasound contrast agent is used to illustrate these differences.
