distances, sometimes over 100 μm between certain types of cells. Tunneling nanotubes that are less than 0.7 micrometers in diameter, have an actin structure...

allotropes of carbon. Two broad classes of carbon nanotubes are recognized: Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have diameters around 0.5–2.0 nanometres...

especially tungsten(IV) sulfide nanotubes Tunneling nanotube, a tubular membrane connection between cells Titanium nanotubes, created by the conversion of...

also transfer between mammalian cells through structures called tunneling nanotubes. Because prokaryotic mRNA does not need to be processed or transported...

w < 10 Å). The tunneling current, being in the sub-nanoampere range, is amplified as close to the scanner as possible. Once tunneling is established,...

cells can hijack the mitochondria from immune cells via physical tunneling nanotubes. In other diseases, defects in nuclear genes lead to dysfunction...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are cylinders of one or more layers of graphene (lattice). Diameters of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and multi-walled...

properties of the carbon nanotubes are extremely anisotropic (directionally dependent) and tunable. Applications of carbon nanotubes in optics and photonics...

nanotubes are very different: whereas carbon nanotubes can be metallic or semiconducting depending on the rolling direction and radius, a BN nanotube...

cells can hijack the mitochondria from immune cells via physical tunneling nanotubes. As a rule, mitochondrial diseases are worse when the defective mitochondria...
