Figure 2

Surface morphology of the various nanomaterial–protein complexes. Representative 2D amplitude images (top) and 3D height images (bottom) of: (a) CNT-COOH–albumin, (b) CNT-COOH–globulin, (c) CNT-COOH–fibrinogen, (d) GNP–albumin, (e) GNP–globulin, (f) GNP–fibrinogen, (g) PGO–albumin, (h) PGO–globulin and (i) PGO–fibrinogen. Scale bars represent 500 nm. CNT-COOH, COOH-functionalized carbon nanotube; GNP, graphene nanoplatelet; PGO, porous graphene oxide.
