Abstract: | The influence of the hydration extent, AOT and silver ion concentration on average particle size and size distribution in
micellar solution of silver nanoparticles obtained by biochemical synthesis was investigated. Formation and stability of nanoparticles
were controlled by measurements of optical absorption spectra. Particle sizes were determined by transmission electron microscopy.
Combinations of varied parameters have been found, making it possible to prepare three micellar solutions of spherical silver
nanoparticles with a different average size in the range 4.6–10.5 nm and narrow size distribution (the standard deviation
does not exceed 2.5 nm). For the water dispersions prepared from such solutions by the specially developed procedure, possible
applications for studies of size effects in the biological action of nanoparticles are also discussed. |
