This study describes the fabrication techniques for two forms of magnetic DNA nanotubes (MDNTs) and their applications as platforms for developing colorimetric assays. The first form of MDNTs was DNTs filled-up with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and the second one was DNTs arayed with MNPs on their extrior surfaces. Then the both forms of MDNTs were employed as platforms for attaching a specifi...

toluidine blue o (tbo) is a cationic dye which is extensively used in the industries. in the present paper a simple and efficient wet chemical method was introduced for removal of tbo from waste aqueous solution. magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes were synthesized using commercially available multi-wall carbon nanotubes and magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles which were examined for removal o...

Torsional dynamic analysis of carbon nanotubes under the effect of longitudinal magnetic field is carried out in the present study. Torque effect of an axial magnetic field on a carbon nanotube has been defined using Maxwell’s relation. Nonlocal governing equation and boundary conditions for carbon nanotubes are obtained by using Hamilton’s minimum energy principle. Eringen’s nonlocal stress gr...

to investigate the electromagnetic interaction of molecules inside the nanotubes, first, the structure of nanotubes b16n16 was optimized with hybrid density functional theory (b3lyp) using the epr-ii basis set, then cu, cu+, cu++ were located in nanotube and we studied the total energy, band gap energy, electrical potential, changes of band gap energy in terms of total energy and dipole moment ...

magnetic force microscope ( mfm ) is a powerful technique for mapping the magnetic force gradient above the sample surface. herein, single-wall carbon nanotubes (swcnt) were used to fabricate mfm probe by dielectrophoresis method which is a reproducible and cost-effective technique. the effect of induced voltage on the deposition manner of carbon nanotubes (cnt) on the atomic force microscope (...

Through magnetic linear dichroism spectroscopy, the magnetic susceptibility anisotropy of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes has been extracted and found to be 2-4 times greater than values for semiconducting nanotubes. This large anisotropy can be understood in terms of large orbital paramagnetism of metallic nanotubes arising from the Aharonov-Bohm-phase-induced gap opening in a parallel...

The synthesis of DNA nanotubes is an important area in nanobiotechnology. Different methods to assemble DNA nanotubes have been reported, and control over the width of the nanotubes has been achieved by programmed subunits of DNA tiles. Here we report the self-assembly of DNA nanotubes with controllable diameters. The DNA nanotubes are formed by the self-organization of single-stranded DNAs, ex...

We report here facile preparation of stabilized polymeric nanotubes with a hair-like shell using yttrium hydroxide nanotubes as the sacrificial template and block copolymer micelles as the precursor, and orientation of the polymeric nanotubes encapsulating magnetic particles under magnetic field.
