Uniform silver nanoparticles have been prepared through the chemical reduction of silver ions by ethanol in presence of sodium linoleate. TEM micrograph shows a uniform distribution of the particles with an average size of 12 nm. Further, the antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles shows that these nanoparticles can be used as effective growth inhibitors against Staphylococcus Basillus, ...

We present a short review of the magnetic excitations in nanoparticles below the superparamagnetic blocking temperature. In this temperature regime, the magnetic dynamics in nanoparticles is dominated by uniform excitations, and this leads to a linear temperature dependence of the magnetization and the magnetic hyperfine field, in contrast to the Bloch T(3/2) law in bulk materials. The temperat...

Nanoparticle size is crucial to drug release behavior and biodistribution in vivo, but few studies have been performed on biodegradable nanoparticles with narrow size distribution. In this note, uniform-sized nanoparticles were prepared by a facile method combining emulsion-solvent removal and premix membrane emulsification for the first time. After preparation of coarse emulsions, additional p...
