Transferrin - 60nm Gold NanoUrchins

Transferrin - 60nm Gold NanoUrchins for NanoUrchin-based assays

Transferrin - 60nm Gold NanoUrchins is a gold NanoUrchin conjugate for detecting transferrin-mediated cellular uptake and receptor tracking in Cell Uptake Studies, Light Microscopy and Electron Microscopy. It helps researchers evaluate target fit, assay readout and control strategy before selecting a related label or antibody format.

Where it helps

Its NanoUrchin morphology supports red-shifted plasmon behavior and enhanced optical response compared with spherical particles of similar core size. This smaller NanoUrchin format is helpful when particle access and optical response both matter in compact assay geometries.

Planning the experiment

• Fits workflows that require clear Transferrin detection and a reagent choice that can be documented consistently.
• Useful for receptor-mediated uptake experiments, where the label helps follow internalization or cell-associated signal.
• Include matched negative controls and optimize blocking to separate true target-associated signal from nonspecific particle binding.
