Fullerene Applications in Biomedicine: A Comprehensive Review - Nanografi
Fullerene is a carbon allotrope present in the form of a mesh consisting of five to seven atoms of carbon bonded together. Fullerene can be present in different sizes and shapes depending upon the category they belong to. However, it mostly presents in the form of a pentagon or a hexagon. Fullerene exhibits remarkable properties and characteristics because of which their applications have only increased over the past years. The major portion of their applications can be found in the me

Applications of Fullerenes
The fullerenes are constituted by a network formed by 12
pentagons and 20 hexagons, closing the sphere. Each carbon of a fullerene is sp
hybridized in the form of a sigma bond (simple bond) with three other carbon
atoms, subtracting one electron from each carbon. The most important property of Fullerenes is its high
symmetry. In this one, there are 120 symmetry operations, such as axis
rotations or reflections in the plane. This makes the C60 molecule the most
symmetrical molecule since it
