Hierarchical functionalisation of single-wall carbon nanotubes with DNA through positively charged pyrene.
A simple and efficient method to link reversibly DNA to SWNTs via electrostatic interaction is reported. The DNA/nanotube hybrids are characterised by a combination of gel electrophoresis and AFM.
