Abstract

Resonance Raman spectroscopy measurements of lysozyme-bound single-walled carbon nanotubes have been made during different stages of the chemically and thermally induced misfolding and of the denaturation process of nanotube-bound lysozymes. Changes to the Raman intensity of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have been observed during the denaturation of lysozyme. The Raman intensity changes are attributed to excitonic transition energy (Eii) shifts of the SWNTs during the denaturation of lysozyme. The Eii shift of SWNTs was confirmed by photoluminescence measurements.
