Contactless optical trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles utilizing SIBA mechanism and EDL force

Mahdi Sahafi

On-chip optical tweezers based on evanescent fields overcome the diffraction limit of the free-space optical tweezers and can be a promising technique for developing lab-on-a-chip devices. While such trapping allows for low-cost and precise manipulation, i ...

MRI micelles self-assembled from synthetic gadolinium-based nano building blocks

Lothar Helm, Vassily Vorobiev

A synthetic nano building block endowed with amphiphilic properties and chelated gadoliniumis presented. Spontaneous self-assembly into small 12 nm corona-core stealth Gd-micelles with inherently high gadolinium loading occurs in water. Gd-Micelles are a n ...

ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2019

The complex organizations of amino acid residues on protein surfaces give rise to a wide space of functions for proteins. Great efforts are devoted in biology to understand such structure-property relationships. Many advanced characterization techniques ha ...

3D to 2D reorganization of silver-thiol nanostructures, triggered by solvent vapor annealing

Francesco Stellacci, Sergio Allegri

Metal-organic composites are of great interest for a wide range of applications. The control of their structure remains a challenge, one of the problems being a complex interplay of covalent and supramolecular interactions. This paper describes the self-as ...

Polyserotonin Nanoparticles as Multifunctional Materials for Biomedical Applications

Nako Nakatsuka

Serotonin-based nanoparticles represent a class of previously unexplored multifunctional nanoplatforms with potential biomedical applications. Serotonin, under basic conditions, self-assembles into monodisperse nanoparticles via autoxidation of serotonin m ...

Beyond Unpredictability: The Importance of Reproducibility in Understanding the Protein Corona of Nanoparticles

Heinrich Hofmann, Diego Chiappe, Lionel André Maurizi, Sandra Caroline Galmarini, Nadia Rachel Von Moos, Noëlie Cayla

While it is well established that the surface of a nanoparticle plays a pivotal role for the protein corona, the vast number of proteins present in biological media render general conclusions about affinities between nanoparticle surfaces and proteins nont ...

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 ...
