Gold-coated plant virus as computed tomography imaging contrast agent

Gold-coated plant virus as computed tomography imaging contrast agent

Chemical modification of the surface of viruses, both the interior and the exterior, imparts new functionalities, that have potential applications in nanomedicine. In this study, we developed novel virus-based nanomaterials as a contrast agent for computed tomography (CT) imaging in vitro. The gold-...
