Functionalised carbon nanotubes are able to cross the cell membrane and to accumulate in the cytoplasm or reach the nucleus without being toxic for the cell up to 10 mM. The study clearly shows that CNTs are a very promising carrier system for future applications in drug delivery and targeting therapy.

Abstract
Functionalised carbon nanotubes are able to cross the cell membrane and to accumulate in the cytoplasm or reach the nucleus without being toxic for the cell up to 10 mM. The study clearly shows that CNTs are a very promising carrier system for future applications in drug delivery and targeting therapy.File in questo prodotto:
