Temperature-Responsive Polymer Microgel-Gold Nanorods Composite Particles: Physicochemical Characterization and Cytocompatibility

In this paper, we report an easy route for preparing new metal nanorod-polymer composites consisting of gold nanorods, Au NRs, and temperature responsive copolymer “microgel” particles. The microgel particles of ~200 nm in size, which contain carboxylic acid groups, were prepared by surfactant-free...
