Labeling of Cells with Silver and Gold Host-Guest Nanocomposites

, , , , , , , , , ,
Nanocomposites combine the properties of nano-sized inorganic guest atoms/molecules with their nanoscopic size polymer host. We have synthesized water-soluble, biocompatible, fluorescent, and stable nanocomposites with regulated surface charge and controlled size for cell labeling studies. [...]
