Polydopamine-coated Au nanorods for targeted fluorescent cell imaging and photothermal therapy

Au nanorods (AuNRs) have attracted a great interest as a platform for constructing various composite core/shell nanoparticles for theranostics applications. However, the development of robust methods for coating AuNRs with a biocompatible shell of high loading capacity and with functional groups sti...
