Evaluation of cytotoxicity, biophysics and biomechanics of cells treated with functionalized hybrid nanomaterials.

Hybrids consisting of carboxylated, single-walled carbon nanotube (c-SWNT)-silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)-DNA-poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) are synthesized via sequential functionalization to mimic the theragnostic (therapy and diagnosis) system. Carboxylation of SWNT has minimized the metal impurities with plenty of -COOH groups to produce hybrid (c-SWNT-AgNPs). The hybrid is further wrapped with DNA...

Quantitative Tissue Spectroscopy of Near Infrared Fluorescent Nanosensor Implants.

Implantable, near infrared (nIR) fluorescent nanosensors are advantageous for in vivo monitoring of biological analytes since they can be rendered selective for a particular target molecule while utilizing their unique optical properties and the nIR tissue transparency window for information transfer without an internal power source or telemetry. However, basic questions remain regarding the op...

رسانش الکترونی رشته ( poly(dG)-poly(dCمولکول DNA در ساختار SWNT/DNA/SWNT

  In this work, using a tight-binding Hamiltonian model, a generalized Greens function method and Löwdins partitioning techniques, some of the significant properties of the conductance of poly(dG)-poly(dC) DNA molecule in SWNT/DNA/SWNT structure are numerically investigated. In Fishbone model, we consider DNA as a planar molecule which contains M cells and 3 further sites (one base pair site an...

Theory of Electronic and Optical Properties of DNA-SWNT Hybrids

Single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) are being studied for use as components in the next generation of electronic and optical devices, including transistors, photodetectors, and biological sensors [1], but to realize large scale production of these and other potential devices, methods must be developed to gain control over the material. This task is multifaceted. Firstly, as-synthesized carbon nanotub...

DNA-Assisted Solubilization of Carbon Nanotubes and Construction of DNA-MWCNT Cross-Linked Hybrid Hydrogels

A simple method for preparation of DNA-carbon nanotubes hybrid hydrogel based on a two-step procedure including: (i) solubilization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) in aqueous solution of DNA, and (ii) chemical cross-linking between solubilized MWCNT via adsorbed DNA and free DNA by ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether is reported. We show that there exists a critical concentration of MWCNT...
