In this paper we describe a simple galvanic replacement reaction (transmetalation reaction) involving sacrificial silver nanoparticles and Au(III) ions using a dialysis membrane. The dialysis membrane acts as a partial barrier that provides excellent control over the kinetics of reaction. This process results in the formation of porous gold nanospheres that improve the fluorescence in cell staining by offering an enhanced surface area for binding of the fluorescent dye, propidium iodide (PI). Such porous nanostructures could be ideal candidates for applications such as catalysis, enzyme immobilization, and drug delivery.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9.407</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, Sanjay</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pasricha, Renu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhatta, Umananda M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Satyam, P.

Contrary to the expectation that nanoparticles dispersed in organic media are stable against aggregation, N-iodosuccinimide addition induced aggregation of octadecylamine capped gold nanoparticles in chloroform or toluene. It was observed that even KI and CuI addition could bring about the aggregation though they are very sparingly soluble in organic solvents. It was also found that even molecular iodine could bring about the above mentioned aggregation. Interestingly, when CuI is used the aggregated structures readily convert to very thin flat nanostructures upon exposure to an electron beam or UV irradiation. In fact when the aggregation is induced by the addition of KI or N-iodosuccinamide we do not see the flattening of the aggregated structures exemplifying the important role of Cu ions in making these flat structures.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.099</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chandran, S.

More specifically, the formation of silicon/silica nanocomposite is shown to occur when the bacterium is exposed to K(2)SiF(6) precursor under ambient conditions. Based on the earlier reports where this bacterium has been shown to synthesize iron oxide and iron sulfide nanoparticles, it is hypothesized that this bacterium secretes reductases and oxidising enzymes, which lead to the Si/SiO(2) nanocomposite synthesis. The particles obtained by bacterial synthesis were thoroughly characterized. The cytotoxicity studies revealed that the particles do not display any cytotoxicity to human skin cells. The synthesis of silica nanoparticles by bacteria in the present study demonstrates the versatility of the organism, and the formation of elemental silicon by this environmentally friendly process expands further the scope of microorganism based nanomaterial synthesis.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;8.262&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
