“…Recently, the combination of nanoparticles with biomolecules [ 20 ], other noble metals [ 21 , 22 ], and responsive polymers [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ] has also attracted much attention for stabilizing AuNPs in aqueous media and regulating their properties. For example, the hybridization of AuNPs with various functional polymers with thiol groups enhances the stability of AuNPs in aqueous media and provides new features, especially responsive properties, enabling the regulation of their unique properties [ 25 , 26 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 ].…”
