OBJECTIVES: To give an overview of aspects of silane coupling agents and surface
conditioning in dentistry. METHODS: Currently, silane coupling agents are used as …

This review covers the compound class of one-dimensional gold strings. These compounds
feature a formally infinite repetition of gold complexes as monomers/repeating units that are …

The colloidal stability of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in natural aquatic environments
influences their transport and environmental persistence, while their dissolution to Ag+ …

A sensor array containing six non-covalent gold nanoparticle–fluorescent polymer
conjugates has been created to detect, identify and quantify protein targets. The polymer …

A sensitive and selective colorimetric detection method for mercury (II) has been well-
established in this paper. It was based on the conformation change of mercury-specific …

It is of great significance to develop an adsorbent with fast adsorption rate for gold ions to
ensure high adsorption capacity and selectivity. Here, we report two humic acid modified …

Presently, the use of several pesticides has been continuously rising owing to the increase
in the production of food materials to meet the requirements of the growing population of the …

Colloidal silver nanoparticles were prepared by reducing silver nitrate with sodium
borohydride. The synthesized silver particles show an intense surface plasmon band in the …

In this study, we reported an environmentally benign method for the synthesis of silver
nanoparticles (AgNPs) by using 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized …

Herein, a user-friendly and portable smartphone-integrated printed-paper sensor was
designed with Cu@ Ag nanoparticles (NPs) for on-site monitoring of dimethoate pesticide in …
