Exploring the potential application of single-walled carbon nanotubes in medical treatment and therapy

This comprehensive review highlights the potential of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as versatile nanomaterials in
medicine by exploring their numerous therapeutic applications. The synthesis processes for single-walled and
multi-walled carbon nanotubes are explored in detail in this article, which includes flame synthesis, arc discharge
method, laser ablation, nebulized spray pyrolysis, and chemical vapor deposition method. The article focuses on
the unique physiochemical characteristics of CNTs that make them attractive for a range of biological uses,
including genetic engineering, infection therapy, antibiotics, antibacterial treatments, and anticancer therapies.
This article also examines the potential use of CNTs in tissue regeneration and artificial implantation, as well as
their use as medications and drug delivery vehicles. The importance of functionalized carbon nanotubes in
improving biological applications- such as tissue engineering and infection treatment-is emphasized in the study. Furthermore, it also discusses the possible drawbacks and toxicity issues related to the application of CNTs,
highlighting the need for more studies to guarantee their safety and efficient application in therapeutic contexts.
