Drug Delivery: Doxorubicin Adsorbed on Carbon Nanotubes: Helical Structure and New Release Trigger (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 19/2017)
Source abstract
Abstract
Shamaila Sadaf and Lorenz Walder study the structure of self-assembled anti cancer drug doxorubicin on chiral carbon nanotubes (CNTs) used as drug carrier in article number 1700649. The scanning tunneling microscopic pictures in the background demonstrate the rich architectural variety of [email protected] wrapping in a helical fashion around the CNTs. Upon electron injection the drug molecules wake up, leave the carrier and become ready to fulfill their task.
