title: Binding enhancement of antigen-functionalized PEGylated gold nanoparticles onto antibody-immobilized surface by increasing the functionalized antigen using alpha-sulfanyl-omega-amino-PEG.
abstract: We established a technique for constructing PEGylated gold nanoparticles (GNP) that have small compounds with almost complete functionalities on their surfaces using a newly synthesized hetero-telechelic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), and their association/dissociation behavior on an antibody-immobilized surface was evaluated using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor.
