Effect of Gold Nanorod Surface Chemistry on Cellular Response

Gold nanorods (GNRs) stabilized with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and GNR functionalized via a ligand exchange method with either thiolated polyethylene glycol (PEG5000) or mercaptohexadecanoic acid (MHDA) were investigated for their stability in biological media and subsequent toxicologica...
