ABSTRACT
The assessment of CNT scaffolds ability to promote neuronal attachment and neurite extension and/or branching is particularly relevant in the perspective of employing these scaffolds to support neuronal network formation and to interface neuronal function. This issue has been addressed by many researchers, employing both SWCNTs and MWCNTs, as-prepared or functionalized (or co-deposited) with (conductive) polymers (Ni et al. 2005; Malarkey et al. 2009; Lu et al. 2010).
