Nanorods provide distinct advantages over their spherical counterparts for targeted drug delivery . Here, a novel method is described for the synthesis of biocompatible protein nanorods from spherical polystyrene templates using the layer‐by‐layer (LBL) technique. These nanorods can be used as a vehicle for the delivery of therapeutic agents to diseased sites.
