Fig. 5

Biochemical landscapes of MWCNTs functionalized with 4 different human sera. Biocorona protein profiles were obtained upon incubation of a single type of MWCNTs with 4 different healthy human sera during 24 h. The biochemical landscapes reveal how the protein components of human sera interact differently with the same nanotube. Arrows indicate some of the most divergent protein peaks. Some proteins are completely absent in some of the samples (blue arrows) while others display significant changes in their affinity for the nanotube (red arrows). Molecular weights (MW) of the proteins are indicated at the bottom of the figure. The full SDS-PAGE analysis is shown in Additional file 1: Figure S6
