A scalable synthesis of highly stable and water dispersible Ag-44(SR)(30) nanoclusters

Francesco Stellacci

We report the synthesis of atomically monodisperse thiol-protected silver nanoclusters Ag-44(SR)(30), (SR = 5-mercapto-2-nitrobenzoic acid) in which the product nanocluster is highly stable in contrast to previous preparation methods. The method is on ...

Determination of nanoparticle size distribution together with density or molecular weight by 2D analytical ultracentrifugation

Francesco Stellacci, Randy Patrick Carney, Jiwon Kim

Nanoparticles are finding many research and industrial applications, yet their characterization remains a challenge. Their cores are often polydisperse and coated by a stabilizing shell that varies in size and composition. No single technique can character ...

Analytical ultracentrifugation to support the development of biomaterials and biomedical devices

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Jutta Christine Wandrey, Conlin O'Neil, Urara Hasegawa

Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) primarily serves to investigate hydrodynamic and thermodynamic properties of natural and synthetic macromolecules and colloids in solution, dispersion or suspension. Beside such more conventional use, AUC can support ma ...
