Ready-to-use protein G-conjugated gold nanorods for biosensing and biomedical applications

Abstract Background Gold nanorods (GNRs) display unique capacity to absorb and scatter near infrared light, which arises from their peculiar composition of surface plasmon resonances. For this reason, GNRs have become an innovative material of great hope in nanomedicine, in particular for imaging an...
