Surfactants, even in miniscule amounts, are often used for the synthesis and especially stabilization of nanomaterials, which is essential vivo applications. In this study, we show that interaction between nanoparticles proteins strongly depends on type stabilizing surfactants their (small) concentration changes. The reaction human serum albumin polystyrene stabilized by an ionic or nonionic surfactant—sodium dodecyl sulfate Lutensol AT50, respectively—was monitored using isothermal...

The pedagogical training of Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) is a crucial component undergraduate education in chemistry and often neglected due to lack time resources. One frequently untapped resource support this effort the population experienced GTAs department. students who have recently been TA position are poised speak incoming graduate from direct relevant experience can foster positive climate around teaching with their peers. In account, we describe GTA program that relies on...

This paper describes the mechanism behind pH response of photoluminescence (PL) aqueous dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA)-capped PbS quantum dots (QDs). The PL spectra ensembles PbS-DHLA QDs bathochromically shift by up to 95 meV as value decreases from 12 5. results optical spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering experiments, along with a phenomenological model for exciton hopping among QDs, suggest that bathochromic shifts can be entirely accounted Förster-type energy transfer (EnT) they...

Emerging applications that exploit the properties of nanoparticles for biotechnology require be biocompatible or support biological recognition. These types particles can produced through syntheses involve biologically relevant molecules (proteins natural extracts, example). Many protocols rely on these are performed without a clear understanding mechanism by which materials produced. We describe single-pot reaction in protein-templated gold (AuNPs) as either solution-suspended colloids...
