The coating of proteins and lipids around the surface of the nanoparticles is known as "protein corona" and "lipid corona", respectively, which have promising biomedical applications. While protein corona formation is well-known, the lipid corona is relatively new and its stability is yet to be explored. In the present contribution, we report a novel lipid corona formation and its underlying mechanism using aromatic amino acid-functionalized gold nanoparticles (Au-AA NPs) as a template by means of spectroscopic (steady-state UV-visible and fluorescence) and imaging (CLSM, HR-TEM, and AFM) techniques. Our study demonstrates that in the presence of high lipid concentration Au-AA NPs intrinsically tow the lipid molecules from the lipid vesicles and decorate themselves by lipid leading to unique lipid corona formation. In contrast, at low lipid concentration Au-AA NPs undergo lipid-induced aggregation. The lipid-nanoparticle interaction is a time-dependent phenomenon and depends on the surface charge of both the lipid and the Au-AA NPs. The HR-TEM analysis indicates that the partial lipid coating is an intermediate step of lipid-induced aggregation and lipid corona formation of the Au-AA NPs. Significantly, we found that the colloidal property of these lipid-coated nanoparticles (lipid corona) is immune to resist extreme harsh conditions, that is, high acidic pH, several repetitive freeze-thaw cycles, and high salt concentration. The extra stability of Au-AA NPs upon the formation of lipid corona allows us to introduce new engineered nanoparticles for future prospective.
