Gold nanoparticles: calixarene complexation in a mixed calixarene–alkanethiol monolayer†
This paper describes a detailed study on the complexation of pyridinium derivatives with calixarenes bound to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The studied calixarene derivatives are mixed with alkanethiols to formmixed monolayers on AuNP surfaces. The key findings are: (i) even a small amount (less than 11 mol%) of calixarenes can retain their complexation abilities among a majority of alkanethiols ...
متن کاملMixed-Monolayer Gold Nanoparticles for Cancer Therapeutics Undergraduate Researcher
This paper describes the development of an efficient transfection vehicle for nucleic acids using surface-functionalized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with a mixed-monolayer of biological molecules—a hybrid approach that combines two previously investigated models. The objective is to improve upon previously described nanoparticles used to introduce nucleic acids to cells—oligonucleotide-functiona...
متن کاملThe tuneable complexation of gold nanoparticles.
Mixed monolayer protected gold nanoparticles have been fabricated incorporating 1,5-dialkyloxynaphthalene moieties that are capable of forming complexes with the tetracationic cyclophane cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene); electrochemical reduction of the cyclophane or the addition of tetrathiafulvalene results in disassembly of the complexes.
متن کاملBiomimetic monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles for immunorecognition.
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) protected by self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are capable of presenting precisely engineered surfaces at the nanoscale, allowing the mimicry of biomacromolecules on an artificial platform. Here we review the generation, characterization, and applications of monolayer-protected AuNPs that have been designed for immunorecognition by the integration of an oligopeptide ep...
متن کاملDipeptide recognition in water mediated by mixed monolayer protected gold nanoparticles.
Mixed monolayer protected gold nanoparticles were prepared featuring functional groups on their surfaces that can engage in interactions with peptides. DOSY NMR binding studies indicate that nanoparticles containing a combination of three orthogonal functional groups are more efficient in binding to dipeptides than mono or difunctionalised analogues.
