Project Description
In this research, we study the effect of voltage on pore blocking current amplitude and dwell time to see how neurotransmitter ions move through the interior of single walled carbon nanotubes. We also study the effect of proton concentration on ionic mobility - the ability of the neurotransmitter ions the move through the nanopore.
