Journal ArticleDOI
Mycosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using the Fungus Fusarium acuminatum and its Activity Against Some Human Pathogenic Bacteria
TL;DR: The synthesis of silver nanoparticles by the fungus F. acuminatum may serve as a simple, cheap, eco-friendly, reliable and safe method to produce an antimicrobial material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separation of nanoparticles by gel electrophoresis according to size and shape.
TL;DR: Electrophoretic mobilities are quantitatively explained by a model based on the Henry formula, providing a theoretical framework for predicting gel mobilities of polymer coated nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity of gold-nanoparticles: Synergistic effects of shape and surface functionalization on micromotility of epithelial cells
Marco Tarantola,Anna Pietuch,David Schneider,Jan Rother,Eva Sunnick,Christina Rosman,Sebastien Pierrat,Carsten Sönnichsen,Joachim Wegener,Andreas Janshoff +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that spherical gold nanoparticles with identical surface functionalization are generally more toxic and more efficiently ingested than rod-shaped particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Assembly of Small Gold Colloids with Functionalized Gold Nanorods
TL;DR: Characterization by gel electrophoresis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and optical dark-field microscopy show the specific binding of functionalized nanorods to their target while avoiding nonspecific binding to substrates, matrices, and other particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytotoxicity of metal and semiconductor nanoparticles indicated by cellular micromotility.
Marco Tarantola,David Schneider,Eva Sunnick,Holger Adam,Sebastien Pierrat,Christina Rosman,Vladimir V. Breus,Carsten Sönnichsen,Thomas Basché,Joachim Wegener,Andreas Janshoff +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the micromotility of animal cells as monitored by electrical cell-substrate impedance analysis (ECIS) is highly suitable to quantify in vitro cytotoxicity of semiconductor quantum dots and gold nanorods.
