Biosynthesis, purification and characterization of silver nanoparticles using Escherichia coli.

TL;DR: The optimal conditions for maximum synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through reduction of Ag(+) ions by the culture supernatant of Escherichia coli are reported and it is demonstrated that particle size could be controlled by varying the parameters such as temperature, pH and concentration of AgNO(3).

Controlled nucleation for the regulation of the particle size in monodisperse gold suspensions

G. Frens
- 01 Jan 1973 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a series of monodisperse suspensions of the same chemical composition but of rather different particle sizes was used to study particle size dependent phenomena, such as Brownian motion, light scattering, sedimentation and electrophoresis of small particles.
Journal ArticleDOI

A study of the nucleation and growth processes in the synthesis of colloidal gold

TL;DR: In this paper, a preliminary survey with the electron microscope of various preparations of colloidal gold, a study was made of the process of nucleation and growth in gold colloids, and it was shown that nucleating agents may be identified with reducing agents which form a mixed polymer with chlorauric ion before the reduction to the nucleus takes place.

Seeding of Colloidal Au Nanoparticle Solutions. 2. Improved Control of Particle Size and Shape

TL;DR: In this article, the surface of preformed 12-nm-diameter Au nanoparticles is reduced by boiling sodium citrate, producing particles highly uniform in size and shape, and a similar procedure, utilizing the reductant NH2OH at room temperature, produces two populations of particles.
