Print-Light-Synthesis of Gold Thin Film Electrodes for Electrochemical Sensing

Horst Pick, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Emanuela Maiorano

The one-step fabrication of gold films by inkjet printing of a gold precursor ink and its photochemical reduction by exposure to UV light is presented. Inkjet printing creates on a substrate with high control micrometer-thin reaction volumes in which upon ...

Isolation of Mixed Compositions of Cellulose Nanocrystals, Microcrystalline Cellulose, and Lignin Nanoparticles from Wood Pulps

Tiffany Abitbol

From a circular economyperspective, one-pot strategies for theisolation of cellulose nanomaterials at a high yield and with multifunctionalproperties are attractive. Here, the effects of lignin content (bleachedvs unbleached softwood kraft pulp) and sulfur ...

Photo- and Thermally- induced Effects on the Absorption Spectroscopy of Au/SiO2 and Au/TiO2 Core-shell Nanoparticles

Lijie Wang

Electrons generated by Landau damping of the plasmon excitation on gold nanoparticles that can be injected into an adjacent semiconductor e.g. anatase TiO2, enhancing the light harvesting capabilities of solar energy conversion devices. The understanding o ...

Covalent and Noncovalent Conjugation of Degradable Polymer Nanoparticles to T Lymphocytes

Harm-Anton Klok, Tanja Thomsen

Cells are attractive as carriers that can help to enhance control over the biodistribution of polymer nanomedicines. One strategy to use cells as carriers is based on the cell surface immobilization of the nanoparticle cargo. While a range of strategies ca ...

Chemistry and Analysis of Nanoparticle-Modified Living Cells

Tanja Thomsen

Conventional therapeutics are often limited by their targeting ability, resulting in harmful and potential fatal side-effects for the patients. Recently, new strategies have been developed to improve target specificity of drugs in order to generate more ef ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Amphiphilic Gold Nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Matteo Gasbarri, Zhi Luo, Zekiye Pelin Güven, Urszula Beata Cendrowska, Samuel Thomas Jones

Gold nanoparticles covered with a mixture of 1-octanethiol (OT) and 11-mercapto-1-undecane sulfonic acid (MUS) have been extensively studied because of their interactions with cell membranes, lipid bilayers, and viruses. The hydrophilic ligands make these ...

Assemblies of gold nanoparticles at liquid-liquid interfaces

Evgeny Smirnov

The interface between two immiscible liquids, i.e. oil and water, is an extremely attractive scaffold to self-assemble nanoparticles (NP) in arranged films. The liquid-liquid interfaces (LLIs) are defect-free and pristine by the nature, they are transparen ...
