Single‐Walled Nanotube/Amphiphile Hybrids for Efficacious Protein Delivery: Rational Modification of Dispersing Agents

Abstract

Designed to deliver: Carbon nanotube (CNT)/amphiphile hybrids with remarkable stability and cell viability under biologically relevant conditions can be obtained by rational modification of the molecular structure of amphiphilic dispersing agents (see scheme; PEG= poly(ethylene glycol)). The CNT/amphiphile hybrids are dispersible in water and efficiently shuttle proteins across mammalian cell membranes.
