reducing surface charge and size or incorporating polymers and other functions into
the surface of nanoparticles to improve their biocompatibility. To date, the most
widely utilized method of avoiding RES uptake of nanoparticles is via the attach-
ment of PEG chains onto the surface. However, several other systems are showing
promise as alternatives to the use of PEG.
