Synthesis of Chitosan-Stabilized Gold Nanoparticles in the Absence/Presence of Tripolyphosphate

Huang, Haizhen, Yang, Xiurong·2004·Biomacromolecules

Abstract

Gold nanoparticles were prepared by reducing gold salt with a polysaccharide, chitosan, in the absence/presence of tripolyphosphate (TPP). Here, chitosan acted as a reducing/stabilizing agent. The obtained gold nanoparticles were characterized with UV--vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicated that the shape and size distribution of gold nanoparticles changed with the molecular weight and concentration of chitosan. More interestingly, the gelation of chitosan upon contacting with polyanion (TPP) can also affect the shape and size distribution of gold nanoparticles. By adding TPP to chitosan solution before the reduction of gold salt, gold nanoparticles have a bimodal size distribution, and at the same time, polygonal gold particles were obtained in addition to spherical gold nanoparticles.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
