Facile synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotube via folic acid grafted nanoparticle for precise delivery of doxorubicin.

The motive of work was to develop a multi-walled carbon nanoplatform through facile method for transportation of potential anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). Folic acid (FA)-ethylene diamine (EDA) anchored and acid functionalised MWCNTs were covalently grafted with DOX via π-π stacking interaction. The resultant composite was corroborated by H NMR, FTIR, XRD, EDX, SEM, and DSC study.
