Polymer-Peptide Modified Gold Nanorods to Improve Cell Conjugation and Cell Labelling for Stem Cells Photoacoustic Imaging
The use of gold nanorods (GNRs) as a contrast agent in bioimaging and cell tracking has numerous advantages, primarily due to the unique optical properties of gold nanorods which allow for the use of infrared regions when imaging. Owing to their unique geometry, Au NRs exhibit surface plasmon modes...
