title: Surface modification of resorcinarene based self-assembled solid lipid nanoparticles for drug targeting.
abstract: Prolyl-bearing amphiphilic resorcinarenes, e.g. tetrakis(N-methylprolyl)tetraundecylcalix[4]resorcinarene, self-assemble as stable solid lipid nanoparticles; these fully characterized systems could be further functionalized at their surface with proteins, and interact with specific antibodies bound on a sensor surface.
