Abstract
A new method of dispersion of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) in aqueous solution using supramolecular compounds is proposed in this chapter. The described system consists of SWNT overlaid by Congo red. SWNT are formed from a rolled layer of graphene, providing a large surface area for binding compounds with planar, aromatic structures (including drugs). Congo red is able to associate with proteins in the form of supramolecular, ribbon-like structures, and may bind various drugs by intercalation.
