چکیده

Gold nanoparticles, AuNPs, capped with mercaptocarboxylic acids followed by silver precipitation develop latent fingermarks on paper as high quality "negative" impressions. This effect stems from hydrogen bonding between the carboxylic group and the paper cellulose and may improve the yield of latent fingermarks since the results are less dependent on sweat composition.

Curcumin coated gold nanoparticles: synthesis, characterization, cytotoxicity, antioxidant activity and its comparison with citrate coated gold nanoparticles

Objective(s): Biological applications of gold nanoparticles have limitations because of the toxic chemicals used in their synthesis. Curcumin can be used as reducing as well as capping agent in synthesis of GNPs to eliminate the cytotoxicity. Conjugation of curcumin to gold also helps in increasing its solubility and bioavailability. Materials and Methods: Here we report synthesis of gold nanop...
