The Carbon Nanotube Revolution in Health care: A Review

   

Ancey Abraham*, Sonika Bhatia*

 

ABSTRACT

 

The discovery of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has revolutionized an engineer’s approach to design. CNTs measuring on the nanometer scale have found extraordinary applications in the field of nanotechnology due to their novel properties. CNTs have found varied applications in the field of medicine as drug delivery carriers, biosensors, and artificial implants. CNT has also been efficiently used in genetic engineering. CNTs have grown to be a popular tool and proved to be a promising nanomaterial for cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this article, the varied applications of CNT in health care are extensively reviewed.
