Dark field microscopy is a widely unknown method to measure the particle size distribution of diffusing nanoparticles by particle tracking. Here we demonstrate that by using the surface plasmonic resonance of Au nanoparticles, size differences of ca. 20 nm can be identified within the particle size distribution. For that purpose, we developed a software tool which helps to analyze color videos ...

Prediction of the nucleation mechanism is one of the most critical factors in the design of a crystallization system. Information about the nucleation mechanism helps to control the size, shape, size distribution, and purity of the produced crystals. When the crystallization method is used for producing nanoparticles, the nucleation mechanism should be predicted. In this study, an empirical cor...

In this work, Poly(ethyleneterephthalate) (PET) substrate was treated using KOH solution and was modified using hybrid O-I coating containing PCL )polycaprolactone( as organic phase and TEOS )tetraethoxysilane( as inorganic phase. The coating was prepared through a sol-gel process and applied on the surface by dip coater. Then, electrically conducting polythiophene (PTh) nanoparticles were depo...

Herein we examined the toxicity, penetration properties and ability of Fe2O3·nH2O magnetic nanoparticles extracted from silt of the Borovoye Lake (Krasnoyarsk, Russia) to bind an antibiotic. Experimental studies were carried out using magnetic nanoparticles alone and after antibiotic exposure in tissue samples from nasal mucosa, cartilage and bone (in vitro). Toxicity of particles was studied i...

In this study, αand β-phase As4S4 nanoparticles were prepared by wet nanomilling using sodium dodecyl sulfate as a surfactant. The properties of the nanoparticles were characterized by particle size distribution and Raman scattering. A monomodal distribution, in the 150 – 200 nm range characterized the particle size of both phases after milling. Raman scattering revealed a common pattern for al...

in the present study, an attempt was made to develop galactosylated albumin nanoparticles of cimetidine for treatment of acetaminophen induced hepatotoxicity. by developing the galactosylated nanoparticulated delivery of cimetidine the required action of drug at the target site i.e at liver can be provided. the advantage of targeting helps to reduce the systemic side effects which may be occur ...

Due to unique applications of palladium nanoparticles, synthesis of these nanoparticles by a simple and low cost method is very important. In this work, Pd nanoparticles were synthesized with narrow size distribution by loading metal salt (Pd(OAc)2 ) into the polymeric matrix (PEG) as reducing agent and stabilizer. Also, the effect of metal salt concentration and PEG molecular weight on the con...

The nanoparticles of Ti and TiO2 have attracted extensive research interest because of their diverse applications in, for instance, catalysis, energy conversion, pigment and cosmetic manufacturing and biomedical engineering. Through this project, a one-step bulk synthesis method of electromagnetic levitational gas condensation (ELGC) was utilized for the synthesis of monodispersed and crystalli...
