Carbon nano-onions (CNOs) possess favorable properties that make them suitable for biomedical applications, including their small size, ready surface modification, and good biocompatibility. Here, we report the covalent immobilization of a synthetic glycopeptide and the protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) onto the surface of carbon nano-onions using the maleimide-thiol "addition reaction". The glycopeptide and BSA are readily transported inside different cell lines, together with carbon nano-onio ...[more]
