                            - Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) integrated with lipid systems have great potential for drug delivery applications. We employed various CNTs for interfacial stabilization of lipid particles. These hierarchically organized lipid-CNT systems, with anticipated low toxicity, are useful for developing multidrug delivery applications. This paper resulted an invited video publication in ‘Journal of Visualized Experiments’, further leading to co-author, Patil-Sen securing a Daphne-Jackson Fellowship at UCLan. Co-author, Gaunt was awarded RSC bursary to present this work at a Faraday-173 conference. This work also inspired a follow-up project on fullerene, another nanomaterial from carbon, which was also published within one year after this article.
