Abstract
Dispersion given gold standard: The dispersion mechanism of raw single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein labeled with colloidal gold nanoparticles was studied using imaging techniques and circular dichroism measurements. Most protein molecules are located close to the SWNTs and the average distance between adjacent protein molecules along the SWNT is a few tens of nanometers, much longer than earlier assumed.
