Introduction: Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and their conjugates are used for many applications in the field of sensors. Literature lacks procedures able to separate, purify characterize these species native conditions without altering them while assuring a high throughput. This technological gap can be reduced by exploiting Asymmetrical Flow Field Fractionation multidetection platforms (AF4 multi...

Background: Chalcogenide nanoparticles (NPs), such as silver selenide NPs (Ag2Se NPs), are used quantum dots in pharmaceutical formulations for the detection of cancer cells, well solar sensors, and electrical, optical, magnetic instruments. Objectives: The physical-chemical production metal is expensive difficult pollutes environment due to use dangerous chemicals by-products. Hence, green che...

This report provides for the first time rapid novel environment friendly cell surface based synthesis of stable gold nanoprisms at room temperature using Penicillium citrinum MTCC9999 biomass. The UV-Visible spectral scan of dispersed gold nanoparticles (GNPs) solution showed absorption maxima at 540 nm due to surface plasma resonance (SPR) of gold nanoparticles. Typical Transmission Electron M...

A simple and economic method of synthesis of silver colloid nanoparticles with controlled size is presented. By reduction of [Ag(NH3)2] complex in sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) micellar solution with three various reducing agents (hydrazine, formalin and ascorbic acid) the nanoparticles were produced with size below 20 nm. The average size, size distribution, morphology, and structure of particle...

A parametric study was carried out on a novel carbon nanotube (CNT) synthesis using 'arc-discharge in solution' (ADS). The carbon nanostructure yield as a function of time, the rate of erosion of the anode, and the rate of deposition of carbonaceous materials on the cathode electrode were investigated. Amperage dependent normalized kinetic parameters were evaluated. The production rate of carbo...

Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is widely used for the characterization of size distributions polymers and nanoparticles in dispersions. The time correlation function scattered intensity can be calculated from fluctuation with converted into scatterers. It has been difficult to apply DLS a dispersion containing large pollutant particles, however, because pollutants moving give rise intense noise...

Ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized at around 4°C~25°C and coated during the synthesis process with biocompatible and biodegradable polymers, dextran or chitosan. The size of ferrite nanoparticles was determined to be 7.51nm by DLS (Dynamic Light Scattering) and TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope). The size of coated nanoparticles was increased up to 128.6nm and 67nm for dextran and chito...

We demonstrated here a facile and efficient synthesis of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-based amphiphilic polymer by thiol-ene click chemistry. The properties of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)–PEG amphiphilic polymers were studied in detail by a combination of 1H NMR, 13C NMR, 29Si NMR FT-IR, GPC, and TG analysis. The newly-designed thiol-ene protocol obtains only anti-Markov...

Maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) nanoparticles have been synthesized using chemical co-precipitation at a different temperature. Characterizations of the sample were performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), alternating gradient magnetometry (AGM) and thermogravimetryanalysis (TGA). The stability of the maghemite nanoparticles suspension was studied at different pH and ti...
