| Abstract |
A glycosaminoglycan mimetic was attached to the surface of solid and mesoporous silica nanoparticles to create novel antiviral agents against herpes simplex type 1 and type 2 viruses. The nanoparticles act as viral entry inhibitors that appear to block viral attachment and penetration into susceptible cells. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 31 October 2018.
All research outputs
#2,641,535
of 22,884,315 outputs
Outputs from Nanoscale
#479
of 9,284 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#47,206
of 393,702 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nanoscale
#53
of 650 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,884,315 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 88th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,284 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.2. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 393,702 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 650 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
