Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have received considerable interest owing to their unique
properties and applications in catalysis. One of the major challenges for colloidal …

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) surface conjugations are widely employed to render passivating
properties to nanoparticles in biological applications. The benefits of surface passivation by …

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a leading contributor to lung cancer mortality rates. CSCs are
responsible for tumor growth and recurrence through inhibition of drug-induced cell death …

Malignant melanoma is aggressive cancer that metastasizes along with the heterogeneity at
the molecular and cellular levels, thereby reducing overall therapeutic efficacy. In the …

Mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNP-MUA) were
synthesized and demonstrated to possess pH-triggered aggregation and re-dispersion, as …

Green synthesis of nanoparticles for catalytic applications remains of continued interest,
especially for reactions that would occur on an industrial scale or that may be of …

The stability of citrate-residues on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) against ligand displacement
has been controversial. Using AuNPs synthesized with deuterated citrate in combination …

Plasmonic anisotropic nanoparticles possess a number of hot spots on their surface due to
the presence of sharp edges, tips or vertices, leading to a high electric field strength …

Herein, we report a rational and highly sustainable strategy for the gram-scale synthesis of
solid chitosan polymer-supported palladium nanoparticles (Pd/Chit) without the use of toxic …

Using the recent polarized resonance synchronous spectroscopic (PRS2) technique, we
reported the quantification of photon extinction, absorption, scattering cross-section spectra …
