A novel fluorescent aptasensor based on single-walled carbon nanohorns.
Single-walled carbon nanohorns have been used to construct an aptasensor for the first time. This novel aptasensor was successfully used for the detection of thrombin with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity. This thrombin aptasensor has a detection limit of as low as 100 pM.
متن کاملSingle-Walled Carbon Nanohorns for Energy Applications
With the growth of the global economy and population, the demand for energy is increasing sharply. The development of environmentally a benign and reliable energy supply is very important and urgent. Single-walled carbon nanohorns (SWCNHs), which have a horn-shaped tip at the top of single-walled nanotube, have emerged as exceptionally promising nanomaterials due to their unique physical and ch...

The purpose of this study is to use the thermal and electrical conductivities of copper oxide nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes for the preparation of high-performance nanofluids for achieving better heat transfer properties. These nanofluids consist of a water/Ethylene Glycol solution containing single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs). The effects of such...
متن کاملMolybdenum disulfide/pyrolytic carbon hybrid electrodes for scalable hydrogen evolution.
The electrochemical generation of hydrogen fuel via the proton reduction in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) in aqueous media is currently dependent on the use expensive noble metal catalysts for which alternatives must be sought. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) has shown great promise as a suitable electrocatalyst in this regard. While many lab-scale experiments on the HER activity of this ma...
