From: Encapsulation of gold nanoparticles into self-assembling protein nanoparticles
Encapsulation of polymer-coated GNPs bearing amine functional groups into P11c SAPNs. TEM images of the encapsulation samples at two buffer conditions: (a) 20 mM HEPES, 10 mM NaCl, 5% glycerol, pH 7.5; and (b) 20 mM HEPES, 150 mM NaCl, 5% glycerol, pH 7.5. The P11c protein concentration is 0.05 mg/ml. (c) DLS profiles for volume distribution of hydrodynamic sizes of the encapsulation samples.
