Dispersion of CNTs with single-strand (ss) and hairpin (hp) DNA yields suspensions with varying degree of individualization and selectivity towards specific tube types. Time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy with dye labelled oligomers is used to investigate structural properties of DNA-SWNT conjugates. hpDNA is found to bind with its loop sideways to the CNT surface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
