Facile Synthesis of 64Cu‐Doped Au Nanocages for Positron Emission Tomography Imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and reliable approach to the synthesis of Cu-doped Au nanocages through the co-deposition of Au and Cu on the surfaces (both outer and inner) of pre-synthesized Au-nocages by reducing HAuCl4 and CuCl2 with ascorbic acid under an alkaline condition was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlling the Release of Neurotrophin-3 and Chondroitinase ABC Enhances the Efficacy of Nerve Guidance Conduits.

TL;DR: Two types of NGCs loaded with factors are constructed and their abilities to repair an 8 mm gap in the rat sciatic nerve are examined and continuous release of the factors from collagen results in enhanced CMAP amplitude and increased axon counts in the distal nerve relative to the plain conduit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding the Stability of Pt-Based Nanocages under Thermal Stress Using In Situ Electron Microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal stability of Pt-based cubic, octahedral, and icosahedral nanocages using high-resolution electron microscopy coupled with in situ heating was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Facile Synthesis of Pt–Pd Alloy Nanocages and Pt Nanorings by Templating with Pd Nanoplates

TL;DR: In this paper, a facile method for the synthesis of Pt-Pd nanocages and Pt nanorings by conformally coating Pd nanoplates with Pt-based shells using polyol-and water-based protocols, respectively, followed by selective removal of the Pd cores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Facile Synthesis of Pd@Pt3–4L Core–Shell Octahedra with a Clean Surface and Thus Enhanced Activity toward Oxygen Reduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the synthesis of Pd@Pt3−4L core−shell octahedral nanocrystals with greatly enhanced activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) by eliminating the use of any capping agent or stabilizer.
