Abstract
In this paper, as-produced multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) have been analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, revealing the presence of Fe, Al, and Zn residuals and impurities. MWNTs have then been dispersed in Pluronic F127 aqueous solution and used to seed neuroblastoma cell lines (HN9.10e and SH-SY5Y) for three days. We found that MWNTs interact with cells and induce, under a permanent constant magnetic field, the cell displacement toward the magnetic source.Entities:
