Conceptual, self-assembling graphene nanocontainers [PDF]
Nanoscale, 2015 We show that graphene nano-sheets, when appropriately functionalised, can form self-assembling nanocontainers which may be opened or closed using a chemical trigger such as pH or polarity of solvent.

Developing a Dissociative Nanocontainer for Peptide Drug Delivery [PDF]
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2015 The potency, selectivity, and decreased side effects of bioactive peptides have propelled these agents to the forefront of pharmacological research. Peptides are especially promising for the treatment of neurological disorders and pain. However, delivery of peptide therapeutics often requires invasive techniques, which is a major obstacle to their ...
