Abstract

The unique combination of electrical, mechanical and electrochemical properties offered by multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) has emerged as a potential element for their use in many kinds of applications including biomedical fields. In this article, the crystallographic structural and electrical properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been discussed briefly. Finally the article concludes by focusing the key properties of MWCNTs which fostered their use in various biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, cancer treatment, gene therapy and diagnostics.
