Progress has been made studying cell-cell signaling communication processes. However, due to limitations of current sensors on time and spatial resolution, the role of many extracellular analytes is still unknown. A single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) platform was previously developed based on the avidin-biotin immobilization of SWNT to a glass substrate. The SWNT platform provides real time feedback about analyte concentration and has a high concentration of evenly distributed sensors, both of which are essential for the study of extracellular analytes. Unfortunately, this initial SWNT platform is synthesized through unsterile conditions and cannot be sterilized post-production due to the delicate nature of the sensors, making it unsuitable for in vitro work. Herein the multiple-step process for SWNT immobilization is modified and the platform's biocompatibility is assessed in terms of sterility, cytotoxicity, cell proliferation, and cell morphology through comparison with non-sensors controls. The results demonstrate the SWNT platform's sterility and lack of toxicity over 72 h. The proliferation rate and morphology profiles for cells growing on the SWNT platform are similar to those grown on tissue culture substrates. This novel nano-sensor platform preserves cell health and cell functionality over time, offering opportunities to study extracellular analytes gradients in cellular communication.
