General description

The surface of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) were functionalized with 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid that exhibited calcium affinity which enabled targeted delivery of Au NPs to calcified tissue.

Application

2-Aminoethylphosphonic acid was used as a growth medium for the marine bacterium Roseovarius nubinhibens ISM.
