What is it about?
Purified carbon nanotubes at low concentrations are inert in cell culture media. Carbon nanotubes at low concentrations are stable in polylysine solutions. Polylysine at moderate concentrations is toxic for Caco2 cells, a particular cancer cell of digestive tract.

Why is it important?
It supports the utilization of low concentrations of carbon nanotubes as drug vehicles. It confirms polylysine activity against cancer cells, in the particular case of Caco2 cells.
