Tiny “tags” made of dye molecules stuffed into carbon nanotubes have been used to develop a high-resolution imaging technique based on Raman scattering. Created by researchers in Canada, the tags ...

Carbon nanotubes and nanopipes have been shown to have great potential as cellular probes, for use as nanofluidic devices to transport solutions to or from cells. Making these nanopipes able to sense ...

A new class of materials called Carbon NanoTubes (CNTs) has attracted significant interest for a wide range of engineering applications. These materials look similar to graphitic carbon in structure.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) One of the complications of nanotoxicology is that the toxicity of a specific nanomaterial cannot be predicted from the toxicity of the same material in a different form. For ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) New work at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock has, for the very first time, demonstrated that Raman spectroscopy can be used to detect and monitor circulating carbon ...
