Immobilization Techniques in the Fabrication of Nanomaterial-Based Electrochemical Biosensors: A Review (2013, background): “Noncovalent surfactant- and polymer assisted aqueous dispersion which utilize the hydrophilic caps of CNTs have helped overcome some of the limitations seen with simple physical stabilization [69–71].”
Carbon Nanotubes in Biology and Medicine: In vitro and in vivo Detection, Imaging and Drug Delivery (2009, background): “properties of carbon nanotubes, including high surface area, semiconducting behavior, band-gap fluorescence, and strong Raman scattering spectra, lend themselves well to measuring or detecting proximal or adsorbed biomolecule interactions along the carbon nanotube sidewall, at functionalized cap reg”
Applications of carbon nanotubes in drug delivery. (2005, background): “Current Opinion in Chemical Biology 2005, 9:674–679 efficient methodologies for the chemical modification of CNT has stimulated the preparation of soluble CNT that can be employed in several biological applications, among which drug delivery appears to be particularly promising [13 ,14–16].”
