Résumé

We apply a combination of polycaprolactone (PCL)-thiol ligand functionalization with flow-controlled microfluidic block copolymer self-assembly to produce biocompatible gold nanoparticle (GNP)-loaded micellar polymer nanoparticles (GNP-PNPs) in which GNPs are encapsulated within PCL cores surrounded by an external layer of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). By varying both the relative amount of block copolymer and the microfluidic flow rate, a series of GNP-PNPs are produced in which the mean number of GNPs per PNP in the < 50-nm fraction (Z
