[h=3]Abstract[/h] We report on a straightforward strategy to fabricate bioactive glycosylated gold nanoparticles via a combination of RAFT polymerization, carbohydrate ligation through reductive amination and thiol-gold self-assembly. This approach is used for the design of gold nanoparticles decorated with the complex sialylated glycan Neu5Ac-α-2-6-Gal, and we demonstrate multivalent and specific recognition between the nanoparticles, lectins and hemagglutinin on the surface of the influenza virus.
