Synthesis of PEGylated gold nanorods (Au NRs) as absorption nanoprobes for near-infrared optical imaging
In this contribution, we show that Au NRs functionalized with PEG molecules can be used as absorption nanoprobes for near-infrared imaging in live animals. We have found that the contrast signal of the in vivo image is dependent upon the transmission ability of the NIR light interacting with the dif...
