摘要: 利用体外评价方法(plasmid DNA assay)和原子力显微镜(atomic force microscopy,AFM)直接观测相结合,研究原始多壁碳纳米管(multiwalled carbon nanotubes, MWNTs)、纯化后的MWNTs以及聚乙二醇(polyethylene glycol, PEG)修饰的MWNTs与DNA的相互作用.结果表明:原始MWNTs对质粒的损伤较为严重;纯化后的MWNTs对质粒的损伤有所减弱;而经PEG修饰的MWNTs对质粒的损伤非常小,表现出良好的生物相容性.

Abstract: The biocompatibility of pristine multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), purified MWNTs and polyethylene glycol MWNTs (PEGMWNTs) was studied using the method of plasmid DNA assay and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results show that pristine MWNTs can cause serious damage to plasmid DNA. After purification, MWNTs may cause less damage to plasmid DNA, while at the same concentration level, PEGMWNTs cause the smallest damage to plasmid DNA.

Key words: biosafety, DNA, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)
