Abstract:
A convenient and versatile approach for biofunctionalization of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was developed based on supramolecular host-guest interaction. Adamantane groups were introduced on the surface of MNPs for further incorporation of specific biofunctional β-cyclodextrin derivatives, endowing MNPs with the desired bioactivity (e.g. biorecognition capability and biocidal activity).
