Figure 1: Synthesis of the TGNs.

Figure 1

(a) Schematic representation of GNRs coated with porphyrin and trastuzumab. GNRs were firstly modified by porphyrin and then conjugated with trastuzumab. (b) TEM images of the GNRs, GNRs-porphyrin, and TGNs. TGNs show relatively irregular with wrapped layer on the surface and have a stronger intensity than GNRs and GNRs-porphyrin.
