چکیده
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.

Nucleic acid detection using single-walled carbon nanohorns as a fluorescent sensing platform.
In this communication, we demonstrate for the first time the proof of concept that single-walled carbon nanohorns can be used as an effective fluorescent sensing platform for nucleic acid detection with a high selectivity down to single-base mismatch.
متن کاملSingle-walled carbon nanohorns coated with Fe2O3 as a superior anode material for lithium ion batteries.
A novel composite of Fe(2)O(3) and single-walled carbon nanohorns (SWCNHs) was firstly developed via a simple hydrothermal method. As an anode material for lithium ion batteries, a Fe(2)O(3)/SWCNHs composite shows excellent rate performance and cycle stability, even at a high current density of 1000 mA g(-1).
متن کاملA novel label-free cocaine assay based on aptamer-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes
Objective(s): This paper describes a selective and sensitive biosensor based on the dissolution and aggregation of aptamer wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes. We report on the direct detection of aptamer–cocaine interactions, namely between a DNA aptamer and cocaine molecules based on near-infrared absorption at λ807. Materials and Methods: First a DNA aptamer recognizing cocaine was non-co...
متن کاملA sensitive electrochemical aptasensor based on the co-catalysis of hemin/G-quadruplex, platinum nanoparticles and flower-like MnO2 nanosphere functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes.
In this work, a sensitive electrochemical aptasensor for the detection of thrombin (TB) is developed and demonstrated based on the co-catalysis of hemin/G-quadruplex, platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) and flower-like MnO2 nanosphere functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-MnO2).
متن کاملOn the Buckling Response of Axially Pressurized Nanotubes Based on a Novel Nonlocal Beam Theory
In the present study, the buckling analysis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) on the basis of a new refined beam theory is analyzed. The SWCNT is modeled as an elastic beam subjected to unidirectional compressive loads. To achieve this aim, the new proposed beam theory has only one unknown variable which leads to one equation similar to Euler beam theory and is also free from any shear ...
