Title: | Bioimpact of Carbon Nanomaterials | Authors: | Đorđević, Aleksandar Injac R. Jovic D. Mrdjanovic J. Seke M. |

The unique size-dependent properties of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs)- graphene, nanotubes (CNTs) and fullerenes- make them very attractive for diagnostic and therapeutic application. This chapter presents possible application of CNMs. Graphene with extraordinary chemical and physical properties has already revealed a great number of potential applications such as environmental toxic material removal, drug delivery, tissue engineering, and fl uorescence-based biomolecular sensing. The CNT derivatives have many interesting properties which make them potentially useful in a living system as biosensors, bioelectronic devices based on enzyme-nanotube or antibody-nanotube conjugates, chemotherapeutic agents, hyperthermia therapy and immunotherapy agents, agent in treatment of central nervous system disorders, and tissue engineering agent. Fullerene C60 derivatives have been used as: drug and gene delivery vectors, magnetic resonance imaging agents, radio protectors, antioxidants, HIV-1 protease inhibitors, antigenotoxic agents, and phototherapy agents. Fullerenols are polyhydroxylated derivatives of fullerene (C60(OH)n) with remarkable antioxidant, xenobiotic-protective, radioprotective, nanodrug and endohedral gadolinium carrier properties. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/4091 | ISBN: | 9781118686232 | DOI: | 10.1002/9781118895399.ch6 |
