Polydopamine/Transferrin Hybrid Nanoparticles for Targeted Cell-Killing

Polydopamine can form biocompatible particles that convert light into heat. Recently, a protocol has been optimized to synthesize polydopamine/protein hybrid nanoparticles that retain the biological function of proteins, and combine it with the stimuli-induced heat generation of polydopamine. We hav...
