objective(s): in recent years, the biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles has been the focus of interest because of their emerging application in a number of areas such as biomedicine. in the present study we report the extracellular biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (aunps) by using a positive bacterium named streptomyces fulvissimus isolate u from rice fields of guilan province, iran.materials a...

An overview of various approaches to synthesize gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) bearing one single chemically addressable unit and their diverse fields application is presented. This comprehensive review not only describes the strategies pursued obtain monofunctionalized AuNPs, but also reports behavior as 'massive' molecules in wet chemical protocols scope applications. The latter reaches from site...

The rapid spreading of emerging variants and sub-variants such as the delta omicron relevant SARS-CoV-2 associated mortality is truly alarming. Considering current situation, development effective countermeasures an urgent need. Utilization nano particle based therapeutics can be proven option which developed in shortest possible period time. When suspended a preprocessed protein filled solutio...

This study was carried out to screen for anti-trypanosomal activities of Sterculia setigera crude and nano-conjugated ethanol extracts synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Fresh stem bark S. separately extracted with (ES) aqueous (AS) followed by green synthesis/reduction extract AuNPs, its formulation into nano-conjugate the addition standard drug Diminazine aceturate (berenil). The AuNPs w...

The application of green-synthesis principles is one of the most impressive research fields for the production of nanoparticles. Different kinds of biological systems have been used for this purpose. In the present study, AuNPs (gold nanoparticles) were prepared within a short time period using a fresh cell extract of the marine microalga Tetraselmis suecica as a reducing agent of HAuCl4 (chlor...

Radiosensitization using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has been shown to vary widely with cell line, irradiation energy, AuNP size, concentration and intracellular localization. We developed a Monte Carlo-based AuNP radiosensitization predictive model (ARP), which takes into account the detailed energy deposition at the nano-scale. This model was compared to experimental cell survival and macrosco...

We report a novel strategy for regiospecific hetero-assembly of DNA-modified gold nanoparticles (DNA-AuNPs) onto upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) into hybrid lab-on-a-particle systems. The DNA-AuNPs have been assembled onto the hexagonal plate-like UCNPs with well-regulated stoichiometry and controlled organization onto the different facets of UCNP, forming various addressable superstructures...

In this paper, the effect of modifiers and pretreatments on the electronic states of 1 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) supported on silica was systematically studied. AuNPs deposited on silica (particle size of 2-4 nm) modified with Ce, La and Fe oxides, were studied by FTIR of adsorbed CO after different redox treatments at 100, 300 and 500 °C. This study was conducted at room temperature to all...

In-situ X-ray reflectivity (XRR) and grazing incidence X-ray small-angle scattering (GISAXS) reveal that unfunctionalized (bare) gold nanoparticles (AuNP) spontaneously adsorb to a cationic lipid template formed by a Langmuir monolayer of DPTAP (1,2-dihexadecanoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane) at vapor/aqueous interfaces. Analysis of the XRR yields the electron density profile across the charged...

The present study concentrates on the synthesis of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) using aqueous solution of Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and tetrachloroaurate by different methods as thermal, sonochemical and electrochemical reduction. The PVP has been used as a reducing agent and acts as a stabilizer for Au nano particles that obtained as principal product. In all synthesis procedures, the active radi...
