Fig. 3From: Antibody-Conjugated Silica-Modified Gold Nanorods for the Diagnosis and Photo-Thermal Therapy of Cryptococcus neoformans: an Experiment In VitroAbsorption spectra of: GNR+SiO2+Ab (A), GNR+SiO2 (B), and anti-C. neoformans antibody (C). The GNR-SiO2 has two absorption bands, a weak transverse surface plasmon resonance wavelength (TSPRW) around 520 nm and a strong longitudinal surface plasmon resonance wavelength (LSPRW) around 808 nm. After being conjugated with antibodies, the TSPRW and LSPRW of GNR-SiO2-Ab are 540 and 835 nm, respectivelyBack to article page
