BNNTs for biotechnology [163]. (a) Illustration of glycodendrimer coated BNNTs in aqueous media. (b) [G-2] Man-BNNTs (left) were stable in aqueous solution for weeks and uncoated BNNTs (right) sedimentated. (c) [G-2] Man-BNNTs can be directly bound onto the CHO cell surface. (d) Depending on the carrier BNNT, BNNTs coated with FITC-labeled DNA were internalized by the CHO cells. Reprinted with permission of [163]. Copyright 2009 American Chemical Society.
