N2 - Catechols are employed by many organisms for diverse functions such as photoprotection, adhesion, immunity, and neuromodulation. We report the use of catechol-containing molecules as a biomimetic strategy to form and functionalize optically-active metallic nanoparticles (NPs).
AB - Catechols are employed by many organisms for diverse functions such as photoprotection, adhesion, immunity, and neuromodulation. We report the use of catechol-containing molecules as a biomimetic strategy to form and functionalize optically-active metallic nanoparticles (NPs).
