Synthesis of Hybrid Gold Nanoparticle (AuNP) Functionalized Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles (SPMNPs) for Efficient Coupling of Biomolecules

Abstract

Recently, we reported our methodology for isolating plasma membrane and lysosome from eukaryotic cell using superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SPMNPs). Here in this article, we report a step-by-step protocol for synthesis of hybrid gold nanoparticle (AuNP), surface functionalization of AuNPs on superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SPMNPs), and potential use of hybrid AuNP-SPMNP for efficient coupling of biomolecules.
