Functionalized Carbon Nanohorns as Drug Delivery Platforms

Carbon nanohorns (CNHs) resembling a single-layered graphene sheet wrapped in a conical shape can be chemically modified in order to immobilize, carry, and release biologically active molecules. Here, we describe the major routes for the preparation of CN
