Abstract: Abstract We report on the synthesis, characterization, and application of biomimetic, spherical Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) coated with keratin (Ker-AuNPs). They are characterized in terms of morphological, spectral, and thermo-optical properties. Besides their excellent colloidal stability,… read more here.
