Ciprofloxacin-protected gold nanoparticles.
The antibacterial drug ciprofloxacin (cfH) has been used to protect gold nanoparticles of two different mean diameters, 4 and 20 nm. The protection is complete with about 65 and 585 cfH molecules covering 4 and 15 nm particles, respectively. The nature of binding has been investigated by several analytical techniques. The nitrogen atom of the NH moiety of piperazine group binds on the gold surf...
متن کاملSynthesis of tetraoctylammonium-protected gold nanoparticles with improved stability.
This paper shows that an introduction of thiosulfate anions in place of bromide anions greatly improves both chemical and thermal stability of tetraoctylammonium-protected gold nanoparticles. Tetraoctylammonium thiosulfate [(Oct)4N+-O3SS]-protected gold nanoparticles are synthesized by the reduction of (Oct)4N+-AuCl4 to Au(I)-SSO3-, followed by the addition of sodium borohydride. The presence o...
متن کاملBiomimetic monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles for immunorecognition.
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) protected by self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are capable of presenting precisely engineered surfaces at the nanoscale, allowing the mimicry of biomacromolecules on an artificial platform. Here we review the generation, characterization, and applications of monolayer-protected AuNPs that have been designed for immunorecognition by the integration of an oligopeptide ep...
متن کاملEnhancement of electrocatalytic activity of gold nanoparticles by sonochemical treatment.
We demonstrate that gold nanoparticles can become catalytically active for the electrochemical hydrogen oxidation reaction by a sonication treatment. Experimental data and theoretical calculations indicate that the activity arises from the supercooled molten state of gold nanoparticles which are enriched with coordinatively unsaturated gold atoms.
متن کاملPREPARATION AND EVALUATION OF PROPERTIES OF PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA EXOTOXIN A CONJUGATE WITH GOLD NANOPARTICLES
Background & Aims: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen and most important cause of hospital infections, which causes septicemia and death through various virulence factors such as exotoxin A. In the present study, P. aeruginosa exotoxin A (as a toxic factor) was prepared with the aim of obtaining a new recombinant vaccine candidate and conjugated with gold nanoparticles and its ...
