We demonstrate optical trapping of plasmonic silica-gold mesocapsules and their use as local SERS probes in Raman tweezers. These novel hybrid dielectric-metal particles, designed for optoplasmonic applications, are mesoscopic porous silica shells embedding gold nanospheres inner wall. observe a high efficiency due to plasmon-enhanced the component. Furthermore, we develop an accurate model this system T-matrix framework studying how forces scale with nanoparticle number mesocapsule. The...
Carbon nanomaterials have received increased attention in the last few years due to their potential applications several areas. In medicine, for example, these could be used as contrast agents, drug transporters, and tissue regenerators or gene therapy. This makes it necessary know behavior of carbon biological media assure good fluidity absence deleterious effects on human health. this work, rheological characterization different graphene fetal bovine serum other fluids, such albumin water,...
In this work, a stability study of dispersions graphene oxide and functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG) in the presence bovine serum albumin is carried out. First, structural characterization these nanomaterials performed by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force ultraviolet visible spectroscopy, comparing starting contact biological material, i.e., fetal serum. The different experiments were at concentrations nanomaterial (0.125–0.5 mg/mL) BSA (0.01–0.04 mg/mL), incubation times...
The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become a critical health challenge. This, plus the discovery void, had led scientists to search for an effective alternative antimicrobials. In this context, nanomaterials, such as graphene oxide (GO), two-dimensional (2D) carbon molecule with oxidized functional groups, have been shown interact physically and chemically bacteria. Moreover, addition polyethylene glycol (PEG) its surface enhances GO’s biocompatibility water solubility, making it...
Searching new environmentally friendly materials is a goal in the construction area. This sector one of most polluting sectors due to large number raw and high amount energy it requires. So, necessary look for ways reduce this environmental impact. In work, proposed use walnut hazelnut shells as material produce insulating materials, mainly thermal insulation, which can be used houses or buildings general. addition, bone glue beeswax, are natural binders have been obtained an ecological way,...
