Abstract:
Gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) are encased in aqueous nanospheres of alpha-helical poly(gamma-benzyl L-glutamate)s (PBLG, number average degree of polymerization: n = 32), with spatially controlled self-assembly structures of solid core-shell nanospheres or double-layered hollow nanocapsules.
