Additional information

This work demonstrated that specific functionalization could allow carbon nanotubes to be used as drug delivery systems. The contribution from Oxford Materials was the electron microscopy methods, in particular single atom imaging of marker atoms in the functionalising molecules using scanning transmission electron microscopy, that allowed confirmation that functionalization had occurred. As a result of the wide interest in the potential of carbon nanotubes as drug delivery systems, the paper has been well cited.
