Abstract A drug delivery system via multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) vehicle was synthesized in aqueous solution. MWNTs were first noncovalently functionalized with chitosan oligomers (CS) with a molecule weight of 4000-6000, making MWNTs water-soluble, and then a cancer ancillary drug tea polyphenols (TP) was conjugated mainly via the hydrogen bond between CS and TP molecules, making MWNTs efficient vehicle for drug delivering. The release of drug molecules can be realized by pH variation and γ-radiation, leading to new methods for controlling drug release from carbon nanotubes carrier. Due to the high penetrability of γ-rays, γ-radiation shows up new opportunities in controlled drug release, possibly facilitating the future cancer treatment in vivo.
