TL;DR: The combination of high surface area, robust immobilization and inherent nanotube electrochemical properties is of promising application in bioelectrochemistry.
Abstract: Metalloproteins and enzymes can be immobilized on SWNTs of different surface chemistry. The combination of high surface area, robust immobilization and inherent nanotube electrochemical properties is of promising application in bioelectrochemistry.

TL;DR: This review focuses on recent important advances in label free assays of protein using a number of electrical methods, including those based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), amperometry/voltammetry, potentiometry, conductometry and field-effect methods.
Abstract: Electrical detection methodologies are likely to underpin the progressive drive towards miniaturised, sensitive and portable biomarker detection protocols. In being easily integrated within standard electronic microfabrication formats, and developing capability in microfluidics, the facile multiplexed detection of a range of proteins in a small analytical volume becomes entirely feasible with something costing just a few thousand pounds and benchtop or handheld in scale. In this review, we focus on recent important advances in label free assays of protein using a number of electrical methods, including those based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), amperometry/voltammetry, potentiometry, conductometry and field-effect methods. We introduce their mechanistic features and examples of application and sensitivity. The current state of the art, real world applications and challenges are outlined.

TL;DR: Direct imaging by high resolution transmission electron microscopy of Zn2Cd5-metallothionein, cytochromes c, c, and β-lactamase 1 shows the carbon nanotube appears to act as a benign host in its ability to encapsulate protein molecules within an environment which offers some protection.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the exact number and orientation of protofilaments within amyloid fibrils is dictated by packing of the regions of the polypeptide chains that are not directly involved in formation of the cross-beta core of the fibril axis.

TL;DR: Delamination of LDHs is an interesting route for producing positively charged thin platelets with a thickness of a few atomic layers, which can be used as nanocomposites for polymers or as building units for making new designed organic- inorganic or inorganic-inorganic nanomaterials.
Abstract: Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are a class of ionic lamellar compounds made up of positively charged brucite-like layers with an interlayer region containing charge compensating anions and solvation molecules. Delamination of LDHs is an interesting route for producing positively charged thin platelets with a thickness of a few atomic layers, which can be used as nanocomposites for polymers or as building units for making new designed organic-inorganic or inorganic-inorganic nanomaterials. The synthesis of nanosized LDH platelets can be generally classified into two approaches, bottom-up and top-down. It requires modification of the LDH interlamellar environment and then selection of an appropriate solvent system. In DDS intercalated LDHs, the aliphatic tails of the DDS- anions exhibit a high degree of interdigitation in order to maximize guest-guest dispersive interactions. Bellezza reported that the LDH colloids can also been obtained by employing a reverse microemulsion approach.
