NANOTUBE: A VERSATILE DRUG DELIVARY SYSTEAM: A REVIEW

Pritishikha S. Rane* and Ranajit S. Kadam*

ABSTRACT

In nano-science and nanotechnology basically more no of nano material has been synthesized and discovered rapidly. Nanotube are most disparate origin. Nanotube are other forms of carbon nano-materials with new properties and application these nano-tube are found in crude oil at very low concentration like 1000 ppm. Meteorites, interstellar dust and proto planetary nebulae as well as in certain sediment layers on Earth. It can also be produced in the laboratory by using various method chemical vapor deposition or by laser ablation process. Nanotube have excellent mechanical and optical properties, also high surface areas and tunable surface structures. Nanotube are prepared by various methods like plasma based synthesis,thermal synthesis process,plasma enhanced CVD . Here we review the synthesis, structure, properties, and applications of individual Nano tubes and clusters of Nanotubes and their useful applications in medical and biological applications.

Keywords: Nanotechnology, Nanoparticle, Nanotube,CVD Method.
