  bibo_abstract:
  - In the past decade carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been widely studied as a potential
    drug-delivery system, especially with functionality for cellular targeting. Yet,
    little is known about the actual process of docking to cell receptors and transport
    dynamics after internalization. Here we performed single-particle studies of folic
    acid (FA) mediated CNT binding to human carcinoma cells and their transport inside
    the cytosol. In particular, we employed molecular recognition force spectroscopy,
    an atomic force microscopy based method, to visualize and quantify docking of
    FA functionalized CNTs to FA binding receptors in terms of binding probability
    and binding force. We then traced individual fluorescently labeled, FA functionalized
    CNTs after specific uptake, and created a dynamic 'roadmap' that clearly showed
    trajectories of directed diffusion and areas of nanotube confinement in the cytosol.
    Our results demonstrate the potential of a single-molecule approach for investigation
    of drug-delivery vehicles and their targeting capacity.@eng
