Polyvinyl alcohol-grafted-multiwalled carbon nanotubes as a delivery system for curcumin in H2O2-induced damaged neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells

Treating neurodegenerative disease using Curcumin, a pigment from turmeric is found difficult due to its low bioavailability. To overcome this problem, polyvinyl alcohol multi-walled carbon nanotubes (PVA-MWCNT) was developed to improve its delivery and uptake by the brain cells. It was first prepar...
