Synthesis of Water-Soluble and Functionalized Nanoparticles by Silica Coating

Jana, Nikhil R., Earhart, Christopher, Ying, Jackie Y.·2007·Chemistry of Materials

Abstract

Synthetic methods for high-quality near-monodispersed nanoparticles of metals, metal oxides, and quantum dots in organic solvents are well-developed, but their applications are restricted due to the lack of water solubility and tailored surface chemistry. In this work, we report the silica-coating procedure for various hydrophobic nanoparticles, including Au, Ag, Fe 3 O 4, and ZnS−CdSe to derive water-soluble and functionalized nanoparticles. We have developed a silica-coating method in toluene using commercially available silanes. This approach is applicable to hydrophobic nanoparticles in the size range of 2−20 nm. Silica-coated nanoparticles are 10−30 nm in size, water-soluble, buffer-stable, and have a positive or negative surface charge depending on the surface functional group and solution pH. The coated particles have primary amine groups on the outer surface and are further functionalized with biotin and antibody.

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.
