Abstract:Nanoparticle passivation by molecular recognition moieties (small molecules, aptamers, antibodies) imputes unique characteristics to nanoparticles (NPs) and unlocks their fascinating selectivity to targeting disease sites. Although non-passivated nanomaterials may archive selective targeting by exploring NP features and their interaction with biofluids proteins, such studies are scarce in the literature. Here, we report spherical manganese-based carbonaceous NPs (MnCQD), which specifically target mice kidneys … Show more
