Positively charged collective oscillations induce efficient Aβ1–42 fibril degradation in the presence of novel Au@Cu2−xS core/shell nanorods

Abstract

We synthesized Au@Cu2−xS core/shell nanorods (NRs) that have synergistic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effects using a new cation exchange process in ethylene glycol (EG) phase. The dual effect – NIR photothermal and surface positive charge plasmon – of Au@Cu2−xS NRs, promote the capability to degrade Aβ1–42 fibrils into amorphous protein.
