Broadening the biocompatibility of gold nanorods from rat to Macaca fascicularis: advancing clinical potential

Abstract Background The biomedical field has used gold nanorods (GNRs) for decades; however, clinical trials and translation is limited except gold nanoshells. The preparation of gold nanoshells is more complex than that of polyethylene glycol-modified GNRs (PEG-GNRs), and it is difficult to ensure...
