Order/Disorder Dynamics in a Dodecanethiol-Capped Gold Nanoparticles Supracrystal by Small-Angle Ultrafast Electron Diffraction

Francesco Stellacci, Fabrizio Carbone, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Tatiana Latychevskaia, Javier Reguera Gomez, Francesco Pennacchio

The design and the characterization of functionalized gold nanoparticles supracrystals require atomically resolved information on both the metallic core and the external organic ligand shell. At present, there is no known approach to characterize simultane ...

Silver nanoparticle-protein interactions in intact rainbow trout gill cells

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue

Upon contact with biota, nanoparticles can bind to proteins, which coat the nanoparticles and form a nanoparticle-protein corona. Knowledge of corona proteins is therefore important for a mechanistic understanding of how nanoparticles interact with biomole ...

Optimization of Gold Nanoparticle Photoluminescence by Alkanethiolation

Giorgio Margaritondo, Ying Chen

Surface thiolation was recently found to affect two important properties of gold nanoparticles: their size and the presence of visible luminescence under UV stimulation. We explored these phenomena by systematically analysing alkanethiolate coatings with d ...

Contact angle and adsorption energies of nanoparticles at the air-liquid interface determined by neutron reflectivity and molecular dynamics

Francesco Stellacci, Javier Reguera Gomez, Mauro Moglianetti, Evgeniy Ponomarev

Understanding how nanomaterials interact with interfaces is essential to control their self-assembly as well as their optical, electronic, and catalytic properties. We present here an experimental approach based on neutron reflectivity (NR) that allows the ...

Transfer studies of polystyrene nanoparticles in the ex vivo human placenta perfusion model: key sources of artifacts

Heinrich Hofmann, Lionel André Maurizi

Nanotechnology is a rapidly expanding and highly promising new technology with many different fields of application. Consequently, the investigation of engineered nanoparticles in biological systems is steadily increasing. Questions about the safety of suc ...

Gold Metal Liquid-Like Droplets

Hubert Girault, Pierre-François Marie Brevet, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Heron Vrubel, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Dmitry Momotenko, Evgeny Smirnov

Simple methods to self-assemble coatings and films encompassing nanoparticles are highly desirable in many practical scenarios, yet scarcely any examples of simple, robust approaches to coat macroscopic droplets with continuous, thick (multilayer), reflect ...

Surface charge of polymer coated SPIONs influences the serum protein adsorption, colloidal stability and subsequent cell interaction in vitro

Alke Fink, Marc Moniatte

It is known that the nanoparticle-cell interaction strongly depends on the physicochemical properties of the investigated particles. In addition, medium density and viscosity influence the colloidal behaviour of nanoparticles. Here, we show how nanoparticl ...

Determination of monolayer-protected gold nanoparticle ligand-shell morphology using NMR

Francesco Stellacci, Marta Mameli

It is accepted that the ligand shell morphology of nanoparticles coated with a monolayer of molecules can be partly responsible for important properties such as cell membrane penetration and wetting. When binary mixtures of molecules coat a nanoparticle, t ...
