REVIEW be defined as the intersection of nanotechnology and biology and is loosely
characterized by two somewhat converse foci:(i) exploiting nanomaterials (NMs) to …

In nanomedicine design, emphasis is centered on the engineered impacts of the
nanomaterials (NMs). However, failure to understand the unintended effects of …

While great success has been achieved in fine-tuning the aspect ratios and thereby the
plasmon resonances of cylindrical Au nanorods, facet control with atomic level precision on …

Gold nanostars (NStars) are highly attractive for biological applications due to their surface
chemistry, facile synthesis, and optical properties. Here, we synthesize NStars in HEPES …

Proteases are important biomarkers and targets for the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
The advantageous properties of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have made these …

Resistive pulse sensors, RPS, are allowing the transport mechanism of molecules, proteins
and even nanoparticles to be characterized as they traverse pores. Previous work using …

We describe a method of controlled evaporation on a textured substrate for self-assembling
and shaping gold-nanorod-based materials. Tridimensional wall features are formed over …

Present work experimentally characterizes the optical property of blended plasmonic
nanofuids based on gold nanorod (AuNR) with different aspect ratios. The existence of …

The past two decades have witnessed great success achieved in the geometry-controlled
synthesis of metallic nanoparticles using the seed-mediated nanocrystal growth method …

Various properties of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are found to play crucial roles in their
biological activity. Among them, the morphology and surface chemistry are extremely …
