However, it is still difficult to characterize GNPs-bioconjugates in solution, which has greatly limited further bioapplications of GNPs. In this study, we reported a single particle method for characterizing GNPs- biomolecules in solution using resonance light scattering correlation spectroscopy (RLSCS). The interaction of GNPs with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and thiol-modified oligonucletides were investigated.展开更多
