Figure 3: The microscopy images fo neuronal cells generated by SWCNT (a) and MWCNT (b)-COMPARATIVE STUDY OF SINGLE- AND MULTI-WALL CARBON NANOTUBES WITH APPLICATION IN CEREBRAL ANEURYSM

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are nanometer-scale cylindrical graphitic struc- tures that exhibit extraordinary physical properties as determined by their structure [6]. Developing neural implants and the process of neuron regener- ation are extremely di±cult. Nerve cells require the right environment and the right growth factors at the right time to grow and proliferate. The elec- trical conductive properties of these nanotubes o®er the possibility of using it as a replacement to transmit and receive signals. The resulting 'hair like' conductive wires that incorporate the properties of electrodes, permeable mi- cro°uidic conduits and the porosity of the CNTs was found to promote cell growth, migration and proliferation. The bridging consists either of an axon or bundles of axons and dendrites. In some cases the bridge is covered with clusters of cells [7]. These bridges form very e±ciently over quartz surfaces which are apparently very poor surfaces for cell attachment. Fig. 2 shows the evolution of a network generated by SWCNT and MWCNT. The data show that cells ¯rst aggregate at the NT islands. As they complete this step axons and dendrites begin to form and to build connections. Also, has been observed for MWCNT higher connections than for SWCNT, Figure 3.
