N2 - Polyethylene glycol-functionalized nanographene oxide (PEGylated n-GO) was synthesized from alkyne-modified n-GO, using solvent-free click-mechanochemistry, i.e., copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). The modified n-GO was subsequently conjugated to a mucin 1 receptor immunoglobulin G antibody (anti-MUC1 IgG) via thiol-ene coupling reaction. n-GO derivatives were characterized with Fourier-transformed infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Bradford assay, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Cell targeting was confirmed in vitro in MDA-MB-231 cells, either expressing or lacking MUC1 receptors, using flow cytometry, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and multiphoton (MP) fluorescence microscopy. Biocompatibility was assessed using the modified lactate dehydrongenase (mLDH) assay.
