Direct and short-time uptake of [70]fullerene into the cell membrane using an exchange reaction from a [70]fullerene-gamma-cyclodextrin complex and the resulting photodynamic activity.
[70]Fullerene (C70) was directly incorporated into the cell membrane using an exchange reaction from a C70-gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CDx) complex within 10 min and the incorporated C70 acted as a photodynamic sensitiser for a cancer cell.

Improvement of solubility of C70 by complexation with cyclomaltononaose (delta-cyclodextrin).
We investigated the solubilizing effects of cyclomaltononaose (delta-CD), a cyclic oligosaccharide composed of nine alpha-1,4-linked D-glucose units, on C70 by using the ball-milling method based on a solid-solid mechanochemical reaction. The complex between C70 and delta-CD was characterized by UV-VIS spectrometry and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FAB-MS). Coloration of the C70/delta-CD system was red-brown in aqueous solution, and the UV-VIS spectrum was in agreement with that of C70 in hexane solution. The FAB-MS spectrum of the C70/delta-CD system showed a negative ion peak corresponding to the molecular weight of a complex between two delta-CD and one C70. These findings suggest that the solubilization of C70 in water was due to complex formation of C70 with delta-CD, and the stoichiometric ratio of this complex was 1: 2 (C70: delta-CD).
