Abstract

We report here a method to manipulate the amount of thiolated DNA attached per gold nanoparticle from a few to tens of strands in less than an hour, which involves the tuning of the respective amount of salt and time of addition of thiolated oligo(ethylene glycol) during mononucleotide-mediated conjugation process.
