Gold nanoparticle (GNP) data set. (a) Synthesis of the GNP libraries with a combination of surface ligands for each series. (b) Experimental data of (1) cellular uptake by A549 cells; (2) cellular uptake by HEK293 cells; (3) HO-1 level in A549 cells; and (4) the partition coefficient (logP). The first six series (GNPs 1–29) were designed as dual surface ligand GNPs, and the last series (GNPs 30–34) was designed with single surface ligands. Series are distinguished by colors. Error bars represent the standard deviations (n = 3).
