After drainage of the foam, the silver ions are reduced in situ by introducing sodium borohydride into the foam by capillary flow. This leads to the formation of silver nanoparticles of spherical, tape- and sheet-like morphology in the foam. The structure of the foam is extremely complex and presents reaction sites of different spatial extent. The differences in foam reaction-site geometry are believed to be responsible for the morphology variation in the silver nanoparticles observed. The silver nanoparticles are observed to be extremely stable in solution suggesting that the AOT or SDS molecules stabilize them. This approach appears promising for application in large-scale synthesis of nanoparticles and may be readily extended to other chemical compositions.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</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;Indian&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.895</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%">Sanyal, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mandal, Sujata</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sastry, M.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthesis and assembly of gold nanoparticles in quasi-linear lysine-keggin-ion colloidal particles</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advanced Functional Materials</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FEB</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 10 11 61, D-69451 WEINHEIM, GERMANY</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">273-280</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The formation of fiber-like colloidal particles of the amino acid lysine complexed with Keggin ions is demonstrated.

One interesting possibility to control the size of inorganic crystals is to grow them on nanoparticles. We report here the use of surface-modified gold nanoparticles as templates for the growth of hydroxyapatite crystals. Crystal growth is promoted by a monolayer of aspartic acid bound to the surface of the gold nanoparticles; the carboxylate ions in aspartic acid are excellent hinging sites for Ca2+ ions. Isothermal titration calorimetry studies of Ca2+ ion binding with aspartic acid-capped gold nanoparticles indicates that the process is entropically driven and that screening of the negative charge by the metal ions leads to their aggregation. The aggregates of gold nanopartictes are believed to be responsible for assembly of the platelike hydroxyapatite crystals into quasi-spherical superstructures. Control experiments using uncapped gold nanoparticles and pure aspartic acid indicate that the amino acid bound to the nanogold surface plays a key role in inducing and directing hydroxyapatite crystal growth.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</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%">3.993</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%">Mandal, Sujata</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lerner, Dan A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marcotte, Nathalie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tichit, Didier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Structural characterization of azoic dye hosted layered double hydroxides</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zeitschrift fur Kristallographie</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anionic exchange</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Depollution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">layered double hydroxides</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Methyl orange</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">X-ray diffraction</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5-6</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OLDENBOURG VERLAG</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LEKTORAT MINT, POSTFACH 80 13 60, D-81613 MUNICH, GERMANY</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">224</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">282-286</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The removal of methyl orange (MO) from an aqueous solution was performed using layered double hydroxides (LDHs) in a move to develop cleaning processes of effluents contaminated with dye molecules. The intercalation of the guest anionic MO species into host M(II)/Al(III) LDHs differing by the nature of the divalent cations (M(II) = Mg, Ni or Zn) was achieved by anionic exchange of the initially NO(3)(-) present in the interlayer space and led to MO/LDH intercalation compounds. The exchange process was followed by XRD and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy at different stages. Almost all MO in solution is uptaken by the Mg-containing LDH in the concentration range corresponding to its anionic exchange capacity (AEC). A lower exchange is reached with the Ni- and Zn-containing LDHs, for which the diffusion of MO is limited due to a larger crystallite size. MO-Zn/Al LDH intercalation compounds exhibit the highest crystallinity and display a remarkable stacking of the layers at maximal MO exchange. This behaviour can be assigned to the higher intrinsic charge density of the host layers in agreement with its lower M(II)/Al(III) molar ratio (Zn(II)/Al(III) approximate to 1.5 whereas Mg(II)/Al(III) and Ni(II)/Al(III) = 2). The maximum amount of MO retained by the different LDHs is higher for Mg-containing LDH, than for Ni- and Zn-containing LDH, reaching respectively 1.15, 0.84 and 0.77 g/g.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5-6</style></issue><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;1.27&lt;/p&gt;</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%">Mayadevi, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kirandas, M.

	Fluoride concentrations in drinking water above permissible levels and incidences of fluorosis among people have been reported from many parts of the world including India. Low-cost and biodegradable adsorbents are the preferred choice for the removal of fluoride from an aqueous medium. In the present study, zinc-aluminium layered double hydroxide (LDH) supported on sugarcane bagasse (raw and acid-treated) has been synthesized, characterized, and investigated for the defluoridation of water. The SEM micrographs of the supported adsorbents show good dispersion of the LDH particles on the support material. The defluoridation capacity of the LDH is enhanced by supporting it on bagasse. The adsorption capacity of supported adsorbents increased by 3-fold than the unsupported LDH adsorbent. The adsorption data have been well fitted to the Freundlich isotherm model indicating physical and multi-layer adsorption. The maximum fluoride adsorption capacity has been found to be 8.85 mg/g with 76.3% fluoride removal when the initial fluoride concentration is 11-12 mg/L. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model has been found suitable to explain the fluoride adsorption kinetics on the supported LDH adsorbents. The present study reveals that the bagasse-supported LDH adsorbent has a high potential for defluoridation of water.&lt;/p&gt;
