In this work, gold embedded chitosan nanoparticles (Au@CS NPs) were fabricated by a one-pot method. The benzaldehyde-terminated poly[(2-methacryloyloxy) ethyl phosphorylcholine] (PMPC) was applied to modification of the gold doped chitosan nanoparticles. The obtained Au@CS-PMPC NPs had the diameter of 135 nm with a narrow distribution. The size of the Au@CS-PMPC NPs, as well as the size of the embedded gold NPs, might be well-controlled by adjusting the feeding ratio between chitosan and HAuCl4. Furthermore, the Au@CS-PMPC NPs showed increased colloidal stability, high drug loading content, pH-responsive drug release, excellent biocompatibility and bright fluorescence emission. The results demonstrated that Au@CS-PMPC NPs showed a great potential for tumor therapy via the combination advantages of pH-sensitive controlled drug release and cellular fluorescence imaging.
