Designer nanoparticles to detect and treat disease
(2009-12-02)
Conjugation of targeting, imaging and drug molecules to nanoparticles has been a developing area of interest over the last 10-15 years. Although great strides have been made, characterization and activity of functionalized ...
Electrophoretic separations of monolayer protected clusters
(2009-07-29)
The determination of electrophoretic properties and the size separation of monolayer protected clusters (MPCs) are presented in this thesis. MPCs are metallic nanoparticles encapsulated in a protecting thiolate monolayer. ...
Nanoscale Gold for Enhanced Protein Electrochemistry, Ebolavirus Immunosensors, and In Vivo Distribution Measurements
(2009-11-02)
Different applications using gold at the nanoscale level are discussed in this dissertation. The first section includes relevant background into nanoparticles, specifically, monolayer protected gold clusters (MPC), and ...
