From The Labs Image of the Month: Carbon nanotubes as cancer-fighting tools April 15, 2015 Dr. Stuart Corr of the Baylor department of surgery is working with these single-walled carbon nanotubes that, when dispersed in an aqueous solution andexposed to a radio frequency electric field, start to bundle together and form ‘ropes’ within the solution. Further, these ropes generate heat a great deal of heat that might be used to kill targeted cancer cells. This image courtesy of Scott Holmes, Department of Surgery at Baylor College of Medicine.
