Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon Nanotubes Loaded with Magnetic Particles
Guzeliya Korneva,Haihui Ye,Yury Gogotsi,Derek Halverson,Gary Friedman,Jean-Claude Bradley,Konstantin G. Kornev +6 more
TL;DR: Experiments using external magnetic fields demonstrate that almost 100% of the nanotubes become magnetic and can be easily manipulated in magnetic field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted drug delivery to magnetic implants for therapeutic applications
Benjamin B. Yellen,Zachary G. Forbes,Derek Halverson,Gregory Fridman,Kenneth A. Barbee,Michael Chorny,Robert J. Levy,Gary Friedman +7 more
TL;DR: Theoretical simulations and experimental results support the assumption that using magnetic implants in combination with externally applied magnetic field will optimize the delivery of magnetic drug to selected sites within a subject.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of axon guidance and extension by three-dimensional constraints
TL;DR: The data demonstrate that 3-D constraints can be used to guide axons, and control the extent of axon formation and the length of axons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of High Gradient Magnetic Field Based Drug Delivery to Magnetizable Implants Under Flow
Zachary G. Forbes,Benjamin B. Yellen,Derek Halverson,Gregory Fridman,Kenneth A. Barbee,Gary Friedman +5 more
TL;DR: This paper demonstrates further development of the minimally invasive, targeted drug delivery system that uses induced magnetism to administer repeatable and patient specific dosages of therapeutic agents to specific sites in the human body.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetostatic interactions between carbon nanotubes filled with magnetic nanoparticles
TL;DR: In this paper, the magnetostatic interactions between carbon nanotubes filled with magnetic particles have been experimentally and theoretically studied, and it has been shown that the attraction/repulsion events are predictable, and that the suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles are attractive candidates for active elements in changeable diffraction gratings, filters, and polarizers.
