Facile Synthesis of Water-Soluble Fullerene (C<sub>60</sub>) Nanoparticles via Mussel-Inspired Chemistry as Efficient Antioxidants
Rational design and modification of the all-carbon fullerene cages to meliorate their nature of hydrophobicity is critical for biomedical applications. The outstanding electron affinity of fullerenes enables them to effectively eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS), the excess of which may lead to...
