Single-walled carbon nanotubes acquire a specific lectin-affinity through supramolecular wrapping with lactose-appended schizophyllan.
Single-walled carbon nanotubes can be entrapped within a helical superstructure composed of schizophyllan bearing lactoside-appendages to show an excellent water-solubility as well as a specific lectin-affinity.
