Are carbon nanopipettes better than glass micropipettes?

Posted by Yury Gogotsi on October 19, 2008 at 7:22pm
We produce carbon-tipped pipette to decrease the diameter and add functionality (SERS, electrochemistry, etc.) to glass micropipettes, which are currently used for cell injections. See:M. G. Schrlau, E. Brailoiu, S. Patel, Y. Gogotsi, N. Dun, H.H. Bau, Utilizing Carbon Nanopipettes to Characterize Calcium Pathways in Cancer Cells, Nanotechnology 19, 325102 (2008)We can make much smaller nanopipettes now, but we are still looking for applications in which carbon nanopipettes with about 100 nm diameters would show a significant advantage over glass. Suggestions are welcome.Yury
