Protein-Functionalized Synthetic Antiferromagnetic Nanoparticles for Biomolecule Detection and Magnetic Manipulation ANGEWANDTE CHEMIE-INTERNATIONAL EDITION Fu, A., Hu, W., Xu, L., Wilson, R. J., Yu, H., Osterfeld, S. J., Gambhir, S. S., Wang, S. X. 2009; 48 (9): 1620-1624

Abstract

Direct protein functionalization provides synthetic antiferromagnetic nanoparticles with high chemical specificity and multifunctionality. These nanoparticle-protein conjugates function as improved magnetic labels for biological detection experiments, and exhibit tunable responses to a small external magnetic field gradient, thus allowing the observation of distinctive single nanoparticle motion.
