    Purpose: The purpose of our study is to propose new insights into interactions between carbon nanotubes and neuron and glial cells electro-chemical activity. Materials and methods: On each of N° 7 quartz substrates samples, N° 14 carbon nanotubes Spots have been prepared, grown on N° 7 Spots displayed in circular geometry and N° 7 on the base of different designed patterns and all vertically aligned. Every CNTs Spot were matched directly with groups of neuron and glial cells NOBEC derived from primary cells dissociated from neonatal rat olfactory bulb. In total N° 49 Spots in circular geometry and N° 49 in different designed patterns. Globally N° 98 Spots were tested, 14 of which were excluded for technical defects. The Study includes globally N° 84 Spots of CNTs. Results: Scanning electron microscope.. View More»
