Scientists envision nanotubes as antibiotics, reaction media, catalysts, drug delivery devices and microcircuit conductors. Although carbon nanotubes already exist, they cannot be genetically modified, and their diameters are flexible. In contrast, E. coli flagella nanotubes are natural, they have a fixed diameter, functional groups can be added to them and they can be mass-produced at a low cost. Subra Muralidharan, Brian C. Tripp and colleagues at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo created flagella nanotubes and analyzed them using fluorescence microscopy, transmission electron...Read full article
