Abstract
⺠(9, 9) Exohydrogenated carbon nanotube broadly mimics characteristics of gramicidin. ⺠Selective to monovalent cations, binds divalent cations and rejects anions. ⺠Conducts potassium six times faster than gramicidin. ⺠Potassium current reduced by 85% due to calcium ions binding at nanotube entrances. ⺠Two potassium ions normally occupy tube, conduction occurs when third ion enters.
