The global aim is to provide a comprehensive physic-chemical characterization of the selected carbon nanotubes (CNTs). In order to analyze the straight and functionalized CNTs the cross-techniques approach will be engaged.
Following the “as prepared” CNTs screening a second round of Simulated Body Fluids (SBFs) immersed CNTs analysis will be performed. Subsequently the CNTs stability in various media will be evaluated.
Last but not least the NT bio-persistence and their distribution in tissues will be characterized.
