Transferrin - 70nm Gold NanoUrchins

Transferrin - 70nm Gold NanoUrchins for NanoUrchin-based assays

Transferrin - 70nm Gold NanoUrchins gives assay developers a defined route to detect transferrin-mediated cellular uptake and receptor tracking across 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.

Assay context

Its NanoUrchin morphology supports red-shifted plasmon behavior and enhanced optical response compared with spherical particles of similar core size. This mid-range NanoUrchin size balances visible signal with practical handling in membrane-based and microscopy workflows.

Experimental considerations

• Supports Cell Uptake Studies, Light Microscopy and Electron Microscopy workflows where Transferrin signal needs to be interpreted with appropriate controls.
• 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.
