As a global leader in gold nanoparticle production, nanoComposix specializes in providing high-purity and monodisperse nanomaterials – delivering the quality you need for consistent results.1,2
200 nm magnetic gold nanoshells combine the plasmonic properties of gold nanoparticles with the separation capability of a magnetic bead. The magnetic core allows for easy manipulation such as separation or concentration and enhances particle utility for a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic applications such as biosensors, lateral flow assays, SERS, drug delivery, and photothermal therapy.
BioReady Magnetic Gold Nanoshells offer a carboxyl ligand (lipoic acid) that is covalently bound to the metal surface enabling subsequent covalent conjugation. Antibodies and other amine-containing biomolecules efficiently bind to carboxyl gold nanoshells using EDC-NHS chemistry to make highly stable conjugates. Review our conjugation protocol or contact our experts for support.
nanoComposix provides high quality nanomaterials that are precisely engineered and highly characterized. All our products are supplied with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis including characterization data such as TEM, DLS, Zeta, and UV-Vis.
