Possibility of silver nanoparticle synthesis by reduction of silver trifluoro acetate inorganic media (ethylene glycol, 2-methoxyethanol, ethyl acetate) was studied. Quercetin, ascorbicacid and potassium citrate were used asreducing agents.

Polymeric fluorescent nanoparticles with covalently embedded perylene fluorophores were developed by facile synthesis strategy and their advanced features of extremely high fluorescence intensity, non-photoblinking and excellent photostability were experimentally confirmed at the single nanoparticle level.

Nanoparticles are an important field of research due to their unique properties as compared to their bulk structures and the diverse applications arising from these properties. The major synthesis methods available involve physical and chemical methods which are expensive and use toxic chemicals. There is hence a need for an eco-friendly synthesis route which is in par with the chemical methods...

A facile aqueous synthesis method for the preparation of Au nanoparticle clusters by the controlled galvanic replacement of Ag nanoparticles with Au precursors is described. The prepared clusters showed both significantly enhanced surface-enhanced Raman scattering activity and stability.

A direct synthesis of nanoparticles of the thermoelectrically relevant AgPbmSbTem+2 materials (m = 0, 1, 2) was accomplished in reverse micelles. The procedure offers several distinct advantages and opens the field for experimentation of thermoelectric properties for nanoparticle-derived materials.

Systematic fabrication of nanoparticle stabilizers can substantially modify the properties of prepared nanoparticles; here the synthesis of solubility adjustable nanoparticles is achieved by employing a family of polarity modulated stabilizers.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are amongst the most investigated materials in nanotechnology in view of their unique physio-chemical features and applications in restorative science. Their progressive usages in different fields of science besides some predominant restrictions with conventional methods for their synthesis have demanded analysts to discover green courses for their creation. Biologi...

Various antibacterial fluoroquinolone compounds were prepared by the direct amination of 7-halo-6- fluoroquinolone-3-carboxylic acids with variety of piperazine derivatives and (4aR,7aR)-octahydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-b] pyridine using Zirconia Sulfuric Acid (ZrSA) nanoparticle, as a catalyst in refluxing water. The results showed that ZrSA exhibited high catalytic activity towards the synthesis of f...
