Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of sedimentation and diffusion on cellular uptake of gold nanoparticles

TL;DR: This work uses upright and inverted cell culture configurations to show that cellular uptake of gold nanoparticles depends on the sedimentation and diffusion velocities of the nanoparticles and is independent of size, shape, density, surface coating and initial concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gold nanocages as photothermal transducers for cancer treatment.

TL;DR: Analysis of tissue distribution for the PEGylated Au nanocages showed that the tumor uptake was 5.7 %ID/g at 96 h post injection, and Histological examination identified extensive damage to the nuclei of tumor cells and tumor interstitium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical Synthesis of Novel Plasmonic Nanoparticles

TL;DR: This work illustrates how oxidative etching and kinetic control can be employed to manipulate the shapes and optical responses of plasmonic nanoparticles made of either Ag or Pd.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetically controlled synthesis of triangular and hexagonal nanoplates of palladium and their SPR/SERS properties

TL;DR: Both triangular and hexagonal nanoplates of Pd exhibited surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peaks in the visible region, and their positions matched with the results of discrete dipole approximation (DDA) calculation.
