“…44,78,81,144 Here, we PEGylated all but one GNR sample, in the manner previously described. 81,170 In biomedical applications, PEG-GNR are directed to the cell surface using antibodies. Part of the PEG-GNR samples were conjugated with HER81 monoclonal antibody (Immunicon, Huntingdon Valley, PA, USA) using a bifunctional PEG crosslinker orthopyridyl dithio-polyethylene glycol-succinimidylpropionate (OPSS-PEG-PDP, Polypure, Oslo, Norway).…”
