We describe a new chemiluminescence (CL) system based on the oxidation of rhodamine B (RhoB) with alkaline potassium permanganate in the presence of gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) and anionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate. Free RhoB is weakly chemiluminescent when oxidized with permanganate at alkaline pH values. However, a remarkably strong enhancement of CL is observed in the presence of Au-NPs, probably due to a strong interaction between RhoB and the NPs. The possible mechanism was studied via recording the CL emission. It is also found that the intensity of CL gradually decreases in the presence of cyanide due to its interaction with the Au-NPs. The relation between the decreased CL intensity and cyanide concentration was exploited to develop a method for the determination of cyanide in the 0.01–0.5 μM concentration range, with a detection limit of 2.8 nM. The method was used to determine cyanide in spiked water, urine, and serum. Figure

We have developed a crown ether based selective colorimetric sensing scheme for the determination of Pb(II) ion by using gold nanoparticles modified with dithiocarbamate derivative of 4′-aminobenzo-18-crown-6 that acts as a colorimetric probe. Monodisperse Au-NPs were prepared by reacting 4′-aminobenzo-18-crown-6 with carbon disulfide to generate the dithiocarbamate ligand which was then added to the Au-NPs to form a supramolecular assembly on their surface. The Au-NPs modified in this way undergo aggregation in the presence of Pb(II) ions, and this causes the color to change from red to blue. The Pb(II)-induced aggregation can be monitored by using UV-visible spectrometry and even with the bare eye. The absorbance ratio (A650nm/A520nm) is linearly related to the concentration of Pb(II) in the 0.1 to 75 μM range (with a correlation coefficient of 0.9957), and the detection limit is 50 nM which is lower than the allowable level (75 nM) as defined by the US EPA. The method was successfully applied to the determination of Pb(II) in spiked water samples. Figure

In comparison to stimuli-responsive, multi-functional nanoparticles (NPs) from synthetic polymers, such NPs based on sustainable, naturally occurring polysaccharides are still scarce. In the present study, stable stimuli-responsive, fluorescent and magnetic NPs were fabricated using cellulose stearoyl esters (CSEs) consisting of cellulose and stearoyl groups. The multifunctional NPs with the average diameters between 80 and 250 nm were obtained after facile nanoprecipitation using CSE solutions containing Fe3O4-NPs. Using the aqueous solution of fluorescent rhodamine B as precipitant, NPs with rhodamine B on NP surface were obtained. Rhodamine B could be released depending on the temperature. In comparison, stearoylaminoethyl rhodamine B can be encapsulated in CSE-NPs, which renders obtained NPs reversible fluorescence in response to UV illumination and heat treatment. 相似文献

In the development of nanoparticle-based vaccine adjuvants, the interaction between nanoparticles (NPs) and the cells is a key factor. To control them, we focused on the relationship between the hydrophobicity of the side chains and the cell membrane. In this study, amphiphilic poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA), using various types of hydrophobic side chains, was synthesized and used to prepare NPs for evaluating the membrane disruptive activity. When leucine ethyl ester (Leu), methionine ethyl ester (Met), or tryptophan ethyl ester (Trp) was grafted, each polymer formed monodispersed NPs at physiological conditions. Significantly, NPs composed of Leu and Trp showed a membrane disruptive activity at the endosomal environment (pH 5–6.5), while NPs composed of Met did not show. This might be due to the weak hydrophobicity of Met compared to that of Leu and Trp, which demonstrated that the interaction between NPs and cells could be controlled by designing the polymer compositions. 相似文献

A complete characterization of the different physico-chemical properties of nanoparticles (NPs) is necessary for the evaluation of their impact on health and environment. Among these properties, the surface characterization of the nanomaterial is the least developed and in many cases limited to the measurement of surface composition and zetapotential. The biological surface adsorption index approach (BSAI) for characterization of surface adsorption properties of NPs has recently been introduced (Xia et al. Nat Nanotechnol 5:671–675, 2010; Xia et al. ACS Nano 5(11):9074–9081, 2011). The BSAI approach offers in principle the possibility to characterize the different interaction forces exerted between a NP's surface and an organic—and by extension biological—entity. The present work further develops the BSAI approach and optimizes a solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (SPME/GC-MS) method which, as an outcome, gives a better-defined quantification of the adsorption properties on NPs. We investigated the various aspects of the SPME/GC-MS method, including kinetics of adsorption of probe compounds on SPME fiber, kinetic of adsorption of probe compounds on NP's surface, and optimization of NP's concentration. The optimized conditions were then tested on 33 probe compounds and on Au NPs (15 nm) and SiO2 NPs (50 nm). The procedure allowed the identification of three compounds adsorbed by silica NPs and nine compounds by Au NPs, with equilibrium times which varied between 30 min and 12 h. Adsorption coefficients of 4.66?±?0.23 and 4.44?±?0.26 were calculated for 1-methylnaphtalene and biphenyl, compared to literature values of 4.89 and 5.18, respectively. The results demonstrated that the detailed optimization of the SPME/GC-MS method under various conditions is a critical factor and a prerequisite to the application of the BSAI approach as a tool to characterize surface adsorption properties of NPs and therefore to draw any further conclusions on their potential impact on health.

We report on the capillary electrophoretic behavior of citrate-capped gold and silver nanoparticles in aqueous medium when applying a ligand-exchange surface reaction with thiols. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of similar size (39?±?6 and 41?±?7 nm, respectively) and shape were synthesized, covered with a citrate shell, and characterized by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. The analysis of these NPs by CE was accomplished by using a buffer solution (pH 9.7; 40 mM SDS, 10 mM CAPS; 0.1 % methanol) containing the anions of thioctic acid or thiomalic acid. These are capable of differently interacting with the surface of the AuNPs and AgNPs and thus introducing additional negative charges. This results in different migration times due to the formation of differently charged nanoparticles. Figure

To characterize the physicochemical and biological stability of nanodevices suitable for biomedical applications, polylactic acid (PLA) nanoparticles (NPs) of 112?±?6 nm and polyhydroxy butyrate (PHB) of 15?±?5 nm size were prepared by standardizing the suitable method for each. Morphology of NPs was studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy and temperature stability by thermogravimetric analysis. Their stability in biological fluids (simulated gastrointestinal and saliva) and tolerance against 0.5 mM NaCl were analyzed. PHB NPs remained stable in all fluids, while after 24 h treatment, the PLA NPs showed the beginning of disintegration with intestinal fluid mimic. In addition to the preparation of polyethylene glycol (PEG) surface-coated NPs, PLA–PEG–PLA triblock copolymer (MW?~?7,366 Da) was also chemically synthesized and characterized. Cytotoxicity of all forms of nanoparticles was tested by MTT assay and by annexin pi staining. 相似文献

Poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA) has been widely used in many applications due to its excellent biodegradability, biocompatibility, and nontoxic properties. In this study, we synthesized a novel photo-sensitive amphiphilic poly(γ-glutamic acid)-graft-7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (AMC-γ-PGA) copolymer, which can self-assemble into nanoparticles (NPs) via solvent exchange method. The resultant AMC-γ-PGA NPs showed sensitivity to UV irradiation, pH, and ionic strength, owing to the presence of coumarin groups and carboxyl groups on the AMC-γ-PGA copolymer. The AMC-γ-PGA NPs were then used as a matrix to entrap hemoglobin (Hb). The obtained Hb@AMC-γ-PGA nanocomposites were cast on the electrode to form a nanocomposite film, which was then photo-crosslinked by UV irradiation to lock and immobilize Hb. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) experiment showed that the Hb@AMC-γ-PGA-nanocomposite-modified electrode exhibited good electrochemical catalytic activity for H2O2, implying that the AMC-γ-PGA NPs provided a favorable microenvironment for Hb and preserved the bioactivity of Hb. In addition, the leakage of Hb was efficiently avoided with the photo-crosslinking of the AMC-γ-PGA NPs. The biocompatible photo-sensitive AMC-γ-PGA NPs provided an excellent platform for immobilization of Hb on electrode. 相似文献

An extremely rapid green approach that generates bulk quantities of nanocrystals of noble metals such as palladium (Pd) and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles (NPs) with a small sizes of 3.8 ± 0.2 and 2.1 ± 0.4 nm by using Piper betle L. (Piperaceae) leaf extract is described. The highly stable and monodispersed Pd and Pt NPs were obtained at 10 min of continuous sunlight exposure. The bio-reduced Pd and Pt NPs were further characterized by using UV–Visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and cyclic voltammetry measurements. The particles, although discrete, were predominately associated with the P. betle plant proteins, which makes them stable over long time periods. These synthesized biogenic Pd and Pt NPs were evaluated for their acute toxicity studies against aquatic organism, Daphnia magna. 相似文献

Monodisperse ZnO colloidal spheres were produced by a two-stage sol–gel reaction process. The sub-micrometer sized ZnO/Ag composite spheres were prepared by photodeposition route. The photochemical reduction method needs no other reductant or surfactant and is an effective means to enable the uniform distribution of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) over the ZnO spheres. The size and shape as well as the optical properties of the composites were characterized with transmission electron microscopy and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The results showed that average size of ZnO and Ag NPs among the composites was around 480, 10 nm, respectively. Ag NPs were relatively monodisperse, presented spherical shape, and their deposition over the ZnO surface was uniform. Formation of Ag NPs on the surface of ZnO spheres was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and the catalytic performance and antibacterial activity was also investigated. The ZnO/Ag composites possess excellent catalytic performance for catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol and can effectively inhibit Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis growth at 0.25 mg/mL. 相似文献

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a polyhydroxy polymer, is the synthetic resin produced in the world due to the physical properties and complete biodegradability. This work tries to introduce novel reinforcement for PVA to improve properties without effect on its biocompatibility. The present investigation deals with the fabrication of new PVA/poly(amide–imide)-zinc oxide nanocomposites (PVA/PAI–ZnO NCs) with different PAI–ZnO loading by using ultrasound irradiation. At first, the surface of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) was modified by biosafe diacid for the better dispersion of NPs and increasing possible interactions between NPs and PAI. Then, PAI–ZnO was used as filler in the PVA matrix. Surface morphology results were amazing. The TEM images and related histograms show a noticeable size decreasing of ZnO NPs from about 31 to 3 nm after preparation of NCs. Other analyses showed that the reinforcement of PAI–ZnO NC into the PVA matrix enhances mechanical and thermal properties of the PVA composites. 相似文献

A glassy carbon electrode was modified with gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) on a quaternized cellulose support in a film composed of poly(ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether) (PEGDGE), and Hb was immobilized on the Au-NPs. The sensor film was characterized by UV–vis spectra, scanning electron microscopy, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Cyclic voltammetry of the Hb in the Au@Qc/PEGDGE film revealed a pair of well-defined and quasi reversible peaks for the protein heme Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox couple at about ?0.333 V (vs. SCE). The sensor film also exhibited good electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of nitric oxide and hydrogen peroxide. The amperometric response of the biosensor depends linearly on the concentration of nitric oxide in the 0.9 to 160 μM range, and the detection limit is as low as 12 nM (at 3σ). The response to hydrogen peroxide is linear in the 59 nM to 4.6 μM concentration range, and the detection limit is 16 nM (at 3σ). This biosensor is sensitive, reproducible, and long-term stable.

(FePt)100Cu0, (FePt)95Cu5 and (FePt)90Cu10 nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully synthesized by the sol–gel method. The relationship between Cu doping and structure and magnetic properties of L10-FePt NPs was studied. The results indicated that all three samples originated a L10-FePt structure and Cu doping did not destroy the ordered structure of L10-FePt. By increasing the Cu content, c/a ratio of the FePtCu NPs linearly decreased. Pawley refinement showed symmetry of (FePt)95Cu5 NPs was still tetragonal. When the Cu concentration increased from 0 to 10 %, coercivity increased from 7,050 to 11,250 Oe. This result confirms that the prepared alloys can be promising candidates for magnetic storage applications. 相似文献

Anatase titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs) were synthesized with and without gelatin via the sol-gel method. The TiO2-NPs were characterized by a number of techniques, such as thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The particle sizes of the TiO2-NPs prepared with and without gelatin were ~13 and ~17 nm, respectively. The main advantage of using gelatin as a stabilizing agent is that it provides long-term stability for nanoparticles by preventing particles agglomeration. The results indicated that gelatin was a reliable green stabilizer, which can be used as a polymerization agent in the sol-gel method for synthesis of tiny size TiO2-NPs. Moreover, the composite film was prepared by synthesized TiO2-NPs nanoparticles and multi wall carbon nanotube (MWNT) on glassy carbon electrode (TiO2-MWNT/GCE). The TiO2-MWNT/GCE responded linearly to L-tryptophan (L-Trp) in the concentration of 1.0 × 10?6 to 1.5 × 10?4 M with detection limit of 5.2 × 10?7 M at 3 using amperometry. The studied sensor exhibited good reproducibility and long-term stability. 相似文献

The novel agarose–nickel (Ag–Ni) expanded bed matrix was investigated with regard to suitability for practical recovery of nano-bioproducts (NBPs) such as protein nanoparticles as drug delivery carriers. The matrix was immobilized by Reactive Green 19 (RG19) dye–ligand and was subjected to biochemical evaluation through batch adsorption studies (isotherm and kinetic studies) and column chromatography of bovine serum albumin nanoparticles (BSA NPs) with average size of 85–95 nm as a model system. Based on adsorption isotherm investigations, the adsorption phenomenon appeared to follow the Langmuir isotherm model with maximum binding capacity of 24.9 mg/ml adsorbent. Subsequently adsorption data were modeled using the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetics equation. The results demonstrated that the adsorption process kinetics followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The dynamic binding capacity (DBC) for BSA NP adsorption was calculated at various flow velocities which showed favorable column efficiency at relatively high flow rates. BSA NPs recovery was studied in the expanded bed column which resulted in 74 % recovery. The results indicated that the novel resin is a promising chromatographic medium for protein nanoparticle separation with high adsorption capacity and column efficiency at reasonably high flow rates. The generic application of such dye–ligand immobilized composite matrix for the adsorption and purification of BSA NPs as a nanoparticulate bioproduct was discussed. 相似文献

In order to improve the antimicrobial activity of bacterial cellulose (BC), the silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were in situ fabricated on the BC membranes, affording BC and Ag hybrid antimicrobial materials, BC + Ag, which possesses excellent antimicrobial performance. Typically, carboxyl groups were firstly introduced into BC by TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical)-mediated oxidation. Then, the carboxyl-functionalized BC was performed with ion-exchange reaction to change the sodium ions into Ag+ by immersing in AgNO3 aqueous solution, generating Ag+ anchored BC. Finally, two types of distinct reductive reagents including NaBH4 and sodium citrate were employed to transform Ag+ into Ag NPs to fabricate BC + Ag. The diameters of Ag NPs were determined to be 3.8 nm for NaBH4-reduced BC + Ag, and 22.0 nm for sodium citrate-reduced one, respectively. The silver content of BC + Ag were determined to be 1.944 and 2.895 wt% for NaBH4-reduced sample and sodium citrate-reduced one, respectively. Two types of BC + Ag both showed a slow and persistent Ag+ release profile, but the NaBH4-reduced one released much more Ag+ than that of sodium citrate under the same measurement condition. In-depth antibacterial analysis via the disc diffusion and colony forming count method disclosed that BC + Ag exhibited strong bactericidal effects against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. And the antibacterial activity of NaBH4-reduced BC + Ag was higher than the sodium citrate-reduced one. Overall, this study would further improve the antibacterial efficiency of BC + Ag. 相似文献

In this study, Pt nanoparticles (NPs) were supported on reduced graphene oxide with the aid of disodium ethylenediamine-tetraacetate, where the Pt iona were initially attached to EDTA-functionalized graphene oxide (EDTA-GO) sheets and then the metal ion and the graphene oxide were reduced simultaneously by ethylene glycol. Electrochemical properties of the catalysts were studied by measuring cyclic voltammetries, and functional groups of the synthesized materials were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. Average sizes and lattice parameters were measured by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy images, and X-ray diffraction. The results showed that Pt NPs were successfully deposited on the EDTA-GO with the crystallite size of about 2.3 nm. The prepared catalysts demonstrated an enhanced tolerance towards CO poisoning, when EDTA-GO was used as supports. This suggests that EDTA plays a crucial role in the dispersion and electrocatalytic activity of the metal nanoparticles. 相似文献

p-Aminothiophenol (pATP) functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been demonstrated as an efficient pH sensor for living cells. The proposed sensor employs gold/silver core-shell nanoparticles (Au@Ag NPs) functionalized MWCNTs hybrid structure as the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate and pATP molecules as the SERS reporters, which possess a pH-dependent SERS performance. By using MWCNTs as the substrate to be in a state of aggregation, the pH sensing range could be extended to pH 3.0~14.0, which is much wider than that using unaggregated Au@Ag NPs without MWCNTs. Furthermore, the pH-sensitive performance was well retained in living cells with a low cytotoxicity. The developed SERS-active MWCNTs-based nanocomposite is expected to be an efficient intracellular pH sensor for bio-applications. 相似文献

Sn nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesised via chemical reduction. Trisodium citrate dihydrate and mixtures of trisodium citrate dihydrate and 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate were used as capping agents for the synthesis. When a specific amount of trisodium citrate dihydrate (3.4 × 10?1 mM) was solely added, very fine particle sizes and excellent suppression of aggregation were achieved in the dried samples. When 5 mM of 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate was used in combination with trisodium citrate dihydrate (at the optimum concentration of 3.4 × 10?2 mM), the particle refining and the suppression of aggregation were further improved. The nano-solder paste prepared by mixing the synthesised Sn NPs with a commercial flux exhibited stable reflow soldering characteristics. The formation of an intermetallic layer, similar to that observed when commercial solder pastes containing micron-sized powders were used, was seen when soldering was carried out with the solder paste containing the synthesised Sn NPs. 相似文献
