Abstract
functionalized carbon dots and PHOS VES supported by FTIR, QCM, ITC and TEM. Moreover, the transport of neurotransmitters (which are generally amine compound) in neurons for cellular communication through synapse is only possible through vesicular platforms, showing that in our body, such interactions are already present. Such studies on the nano-bio interface will help biomedical researchers design efficient carbon-based nanomaterial as drug/gene delivery vehicles.
