Conjugation of Polymer-Coated Gold Nanoparticles with Antibodies—Synthesis and Characterization

The synthesis of polymer-coated gold nanoparticles with high colloidal stability is described, together with appropriate characterization techniques concerning the colloidal properties of the nanoparticles. Antibodies against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are conjugated to the surface of...
