the use of biogenic selenium nanoparticles for various purposes is going to be an issue of considerable importance; thus, appropriate simple methods should be developed and tested for the synthesis and recovery of these nanoparticles. in this study, a fungus was isolated from a soil sample, identified as aspergillus terreus and used for extracellular synthesis of selenium nanoparticles (se nps)...

according to circumstance of kerman sarcheshmeh cooper complex that its anode slime is mainly consisted of cu, ag, au, pb and se. in this work, recovery of silver from anode slime and subsequent synthesis of silver nanoparticles from leaching solution was made. silver was separated from anode slime by using of hno3 and hcl. x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (xrf) was used to characterize anode sl...

biodegradable nanoparticulate carriers, have important potential applications for administration of therapeutic molecules. chitosan based nanoparticles have attracted a lot of attention upon their biological properties such as biodegradability, biocom-patibility and bioadhesivity. the aim of the present investigation was to describe the synthesis and characterization of novel biodegradable nano...

the aim of the present work was to prepare and characterize biopolymer nanocarriers and evaluate their suitability in possible oral delivery of insulin. the egg albumin biopolymer was used to prepare nanoparticles which were further characterized by fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ftir), transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), zeta potential, dynam...

manganese zinc ferrite nanoparticles (mzf nps) were synthesized by using a direct, efficient and environmental friendly hydrothermal method. to improve the colloidal stability of mzf nps for biomedical applications, nps were coated with chitosan by ionic gelation technique using sodium tripolyphosphate (tpp) as crosslinker. the synthesized nps were characterized by x ray diffraction (xrd) analy...

We describe a light scattering apparatus based on a novel optical scheme covering the scattering angle range 0.5° ≤ θ ≤ 25°, an intermediate regime at the frontier between wide angle and small angle setups that is difficult to access by existing instruments. Our apparatus uses standard, readily available optomechanical components. Thanks to the use of a charge-coupled device detector, both stat...

In this paper, aggregation behaviors of aqueous solutions of short chain hydrophilic Ionic Liquids (ILs), 1 – allyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([Amim]Cl), 1 - ethyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([Emim]Cl), 1 - butyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl), 1 - butyl - 3 - methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim]BF4) were investigated using conductivity and laser ...
