Surface modification, functionalization and bioconjugation of colloidal inorganic nanoparticles.
Inorganic colloidal nanoparticles are very small, nanoscale objects with inorganic cores that are dispersed in a solvent. Depending on the material they consist of, nanoparticles can possess a number of different properties such as high electron density and strong optical absorption (e.g. metal particles, in particular Au), photoluminescence in the form of fluorescence (semiconductor quantum do...
متن کاملFacile Surface Functionalization of Hydrophobic Magnetic Nanoparticles
Nonpolar phase synthesized hydrophobic nanocrystals show attractive properties and have demonstrated prominent potential in biomedical applications. However, the preparation of biocompatible nanocrystals is made difficult by the presence of hydrophobic surfactant stabilizer on their surfaces. To address this limitation, we have developed a facile, high efficiency, single-phase and low-cost meth...
متن کاملSurface Functionalization of Monodisperse Magnetic Nanoparticles
We present a systematic methodology to functionalize magnetic nanoparticles through surface-initiated atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The magnetite nanoparticles are prepared according to the method proposed by Sun et al. (2004), which leads to a monodisperse population of ~ 6 nm particles stabilized by oleic acid. The functionalization of the nanoparticles has been performed by tr...
متن کاملEffect of surface functionalization of MCM-41-type mesoporous silica nanoparticles on the endocytosis by human cancer cells.
We have synthesized a series of MCM-41-type mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). The surface of the MSNs are functionalized with 3-aminopropyl (AP), 3-guanidinopropyl (GP), 3-[N-(2-guanidinoethyl)guanidino]propyl (GEGP), and N-folate-3-aminopropyl (FAP). In contrast to the zeta-potential of -18.4 mV for FITC-MSN, the values of zeta-potential for AP-, GP-, GEGP-, and FAP-functionalized FITC-MS...
متن کاملAntibiofilm surface functionalization of catheters by magnesium fluoride nanoparticles
The ability of bacteria to colonize catheters is a major cause of infection. In the current study, catheters were surface-modified with MgF(2) nanoparticles (NPs) using a sonochemical synthesis protocol described previously. The one-step synthesis and coating procedure yielded a homogenous MgF(2) NP layer on both the inside and outside of the catheter, as analyzed by high resolution scanning el...
