Abstract:
A recently published technique enables the attachment of small molecules to nanoparticles for improved targeting of nanomaterials. This new methodology has been compared with some of the other nanoparticle-based techniques for target discovery and found to be more versatile and specific. This approach has potential for high-throughput drug discovery, improved drug delivery and linking of diagnostics to therapeutics for the development of personalized medicines.
