Pharmaceutical Application of Carbon Nanotubes Synthesized by Flame Fragments Deposition Method
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
One of the most important applications of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) is their using in pharmacy as an excellent vehicle for drug delivery. Different techniques are used to synthesize CNTs. CNTs are used in medicine as a carries for drugs such as antibacterial to improve the penetrating capacity of drugs and reduce toxicity of using anticancer drug directly without carrier. In our research laboratory CNTs were synthesized by using different carbon sources including date palm seeds, alcohols and natural gas. Synthesizing of CNTs from natural gas by Flame Fragments Deposition (FFD) may be considered as a clean technique and more suitable to use its yield in medical and pharmaceutical applications due to the absence of using any type of catalysts in this technique. Synthesized CNTs showed a high capacity for adsorption.
