Abstract

Compared with other biopharmaceutical technologies, carbon nanotubes not only have unique structure, but also have strong electrochemical properties, which occupy an important position in the fields of chemistry, physics, biopharmaceutics and materials science, and have played an active role in promoting the development of biopharmaceutics and chemical industry in China. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are mainly used in the field of biopharmacology for the determination of small biological molecules and drug molecules, the determination of dopamine and thrombin, the determination of high concentrations of ascorbic acid, and the detection of drug formulations. Although carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have many advantages in the field of biopharmaceutics, there are certain limitations that limit the scope of application of carbon tubes, which are mainly the following: one is the high cost of the carbon nanotube material itself and the high technical difficulty of its preparation; the other is that the smooth surface of the material is not conducive to the loading of other particles; finally, although the carbon nanotubes are modified with different groups after treatment, the structure of the material itself is damaged. Finally, although carbon nanotubes are modified with different groups after treatment, their own material structure is destroyed, which reduces their conduction performance. Although the above defects can affect the performance of carbon nanotubes, they can be solved by optimizing the structure of carbon nanotubes, enhancing the plastic mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes and corrosion resistance, in order to give full play to the role of carbon nanotubes in the field of biopharmaceuticals. In this regard, the author briefly analyzes the electrochemical properties of carbon nanotubes in biopharmacology and the application of treatment methods based on relevant literature and work experience, hoping to provide reference value for related scholars and researchers.
