Investigate the carboxylation in carbon containing nano-carriers for drug delivery systems


Author(s): Shraddha Jain, Dr. Arun Patel and Dr. Shailendra Patel

Abstract:
Introduction: This study explores the versatile properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), emphasizing their exceptional mechanical, thermal, electrical, and optical characteristics, particularly in drug delivery applications. Synthesis methods, like low-temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD), are favored for precise control. Challenges, such as working with small structures, high production costs, and implementation uncertainties, are acknowledged. Detailed discussions on CNT properties, including mechanical strength and thermal conductivity, underscore their suitability for drug delivery systems. Specific challenges of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), focusing on purity and dispersibility, are addressed. The outlined plan involves a literature review, carboxylation method selection, post-carboxylation identification, and characterization steps, exploring SWCNTs' conversion, curcumin-loaded delivery systems, amino-functionalization, and targeted drug delivery functionalization. The chosen carboxylation method involves H2O2/UV oxidation, with applicable procedural steps for both SWCNTs and multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs).
Summary and Conclusion: This investigation aims to advance the understanding of carbon-based nano-carriers, particularly CNTs, for drug delivery. The abstract encapsulates the exploration of CNT properties, diverse applications, challenges, and the proposed systematic methodology for carboxylation, providing a succinct overview of the study's objectives and significance.
