Article Synopsis
  • - Surface chemistry is crucial for determining the properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and traditional methods for modifying these surfaces often involve complex place-exchange reactions with new ligands.
  • - A new methodology has been developed that modifies AuNPs by acylating terminal amino groups of PEG ligands using organic acid anhydrides in a simple aqueous buffer.
  • - This approach not only allows for complete surface modification but also enables the creation of AuNPs with mixed surface chemistries, making it a more efficient and versatile alternative to existing methods for customizing AuNP surfaces.
