UV–VIS pattern of silver coated single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs-Ag) functionalized with the antimicrobial peptide TP359. SWCNTs-Ag were functionalized with TP359 (FSWCNTs-Ag) or simply mixed with TP359 (SWCNTs-Ag-M) and UV-VIS spectra of both the formulations was investigated and compared with the plan SWCNTs-Ag and TP359. The characteristic peak at ~250 nm on FSWCNTs-Ag 1 was observed on TP359 compared to SWCNTs-Ag and SWCNTs-Ag-M
