Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the main source of energy required for all life activities and is used as a biomarker for diseases such as cancer. It is of great significance to design a novel fluorescent probe with favorable performance for monitoring the changes of ATP concentration. Herein, a fluorescence probe named ZnCPs@AuNCs for ATP sensing was designed and fabricated by integrating AuNCs into ZnCPs. The emission intensity of AuNCs was greatly enhanced upon the formation of the ZnCPs@AuNCs nanocomposites, which may be attributed to ZnCPs restricting the molecular motion of AuNCs. Upon the introduction of ATP, the fluorescence intensity at 564 nm of ZnCPs@AuNCs is quenched. According to this phenomenon, a sensitive and reliable ATP sensing platform was established. Moreover, ZnCPs@AuNCs were incorporated into a poly (vinyl alcohol) matrix for the fabrication of fluorescent film, which exhibited solid-state fluorescence. Inspired by the remarkable fluorescent properties of ZnCPs@AuNCs, the fluorescent hydrogel was prepared by mixing ZnCPs@AuNCs with κ-carrageenan, which demonstrated a response to ATP and favorable self-healing ability. This work presents a perspective of ZnCPs@AuNCs in multiple applications such as biosensing, fluorescent film, and hydrogel construction.

A fluorescent dual-emitting platform for fluorescent "turn-on" ratiometric detection of ascorbic acid in beverages utilizing luminol-embedded iron-based metal-organic frameworks.

[PMID: 37738811 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
A fluorescent dual-emitting platform for fluorescent "turn-on" ratiometric detection of ascorbic acid in beverages was developed utilizing luminol-embedded iron-based metal-organic frameworks (luminol@Fe-DOBDC MOFs). Luminol@Fe-DOBDC MOFs with fluorescent emissions at 430 nm and 540 nm under excitation wavelength of 365 nm were applied to detect ascorbic acid on the basis of ascorbic acid triggering the reduction of Fe3+ into Fe2+. In the presence of ascorbic acid, fluorescent intensity at 540 nm was increased significantly while fluorescent intensity at 430 nm was changed slightly. Two emission peaks separated by 110 nm can eliminate environmental interferences by built-in self-calibration of ratiometric signal, enhancing the sensitivity and accuracy. The increasing ratiometric fluorescent intensity (I540 nm/I430 nm) has linear relationship with the concentration of ascorbic acid from 0.2 to 30 μM with limit of detection of 70 nM. It is an efficient, sensitive and accurate platform to detect ascorbic acid in commercial beverages using transition-metal-based MOFs.

Abstract
Non-invasive bioimaging is essential in enhancing pre-clinical diagnosis and therapy. Developing efficient imaging probes with high stability, low toxicity, and the potential of offering high resolution images is a very important aspect of developing non-invasive bioimaging techniques. Fluorescent nanodiamonds, which are produced by high energy beam irradiation and high temperature/pressure treatment, have been extensively investigated. In this study, we report the chemical modification of common nanodiamonds (prepared by detonation and high-pressure high-temperature milling) using a stable fluorophore (perylene diimide derivative) via carbodiimide coupling. The resulting nanodiamonds show good biocompatibility, cellular uptake and fluorescent imaging potential with mesenchymal stromal cells. This method provides an efficient alternative approach to the preparation and the use of fluorescent nanodiamonds for bioimaging, with the potential benefit of chemically adjusting the structure of perylene diimide for optimized emission/absorbance wavelength.

Abstract
NaH2SIP was selected as an organic ligand (NaH2SIP = 5-sulfoisophthalic acid monosodium salt). We successfully constructed a new class of lanthanide coordination polymers Ln-HS ([Ln(SIP)(DMF)(H2O)4]DMF·H2O; Ln = Eu, Tb, Sm, and Dy) by a simple solvothermal synthesis method. They exhibited excellent photoluminescence properties for Ln3+ ions, where Eu-HS and Tb-HS exhibited high quantum yields of 13.70 and 42.38%, respectively. The codoped lanthanide coordination polymers obtained by doping with different ratios of Eu3+/Tb3+ serve as excellent ratiometric thermometers with high sensitivities in the physiological temperature range, with values of 16.8, 7.0, and 14.5%·K-1, respectively. The luminescent colors of Tb0.95Eu0.05-HS and Tb0.94Eu0.06-HS exhibit variations from green to yellow to orange, achieving visualized luminescence in a narrow temperature range. The composite film material Tb0.94Eu0.06-HS@PMMA demonstrates this color variation. Next, Tb0.5Sm0.5-HS obtained by Tb3+/Sm3+ codoping was investigated. The difference in the luminescence colors visible to the naked eye at different excitation wavelengths and the change in luminescence colors occur in a very narrow temperature range. All of them show the great value of the visualized luminescence in practical anticounterfeiting, with double anticounterfeiting function and high security.

An intelligent "chemical tongue" for high-order monitoring ATP-related physiological phosphates and ATP hydrolysis through diverse transduction principles. Biosens Bioelectron 2023; 241:115691. [PMID: 37738803 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023]
Abstract
For discriminating diverse analytes and monitoring a specific chemical reaction, the emerging multi-channel "chemical nose/tongue" is challenging multi-material "chemical nose/tongue". The former contributes greatly to integrating different transduction principles from a single sensing material, avoiding the need for complex design, high cost, and tedious operation involved with the latter. Therefore, this high-order sensing puts a particular emphasis on the effects of encapsulation. Herein, the plasmonic gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are encapsulated as a core into the fluorescent guanine monophosphate-Tb3+ infinite coordination polymer nanoparticles (GMP-Tb ICPs) to obtain a core-shell nanocomposite named Au NPs@GMP-Tb ICPs. Hence, a dual-channel "chemical tongue" based on Au NPs@GMP-Tb ICPs is present to realize high-order sensing of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-related physiological phosphates and the monitoring of ATP hydrolysis. Considering the affinity of Tb3+ towards P-O bonds, four inorganic phosphates and three nucleotide phosphates with different phosphate group numbers and steric hindrance effect directly regulate two stimulus responses (fluorescence intensity and UV-vis absorbance) of Au NPs@GMP-Tb ICPs. Robust statistical methods, such as linear discriminant analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis, are used to recognize each phosphate by the developed sensor array either in the aqueous solution or in complex media such as serum, together with efficiently monitored ATP hydrolysis at different intervals. These findings and blind test clarify that the designed "chemical tongue" guarantees interference resistance and strengthens analytical capacity, together with offering valuable insight into "lab-on-a-nanoparticle" development for monitoring specific chemical reactions.

Abstract
Amphiphilic copolymers can self-assemble into nano-objects in aqueous solution. However, the self-assembly process is usually performed in a diluted solution (<1 wt%), which greatly limits scale-up production and further biomedical applications. With recent development of controlled polymerization techniques, polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) has emerged as an efficient approach for facile fabrication of nano-sized structures with a high concentration as high as 50 wt%. In this review, after the introduction, various polymerization method-mediated PISAs that include nitroxide-mediated polymerization-mediated PISA (NMP-PISA), reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization-mediated PISA (RAFT-PISA), atom transfer radical polymerization-mediated PISA (ATRP-PISA), and ring-opening polymerization-mediated PISA (ROP-PISA) are discussed carefully. Afterward, recent biomedical applications of PISA are illustrated from the following aspects, i.e., bioimaging, disease treatment, biocatalysis, and antimicrobial. In the end, current achievements and future perspectives of PISA are given. It is envisioned that PISA strategy can bring great chance for future design and construction of functional nano-vehicles.

Ultrarapid Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Fluorescent Silver Coordination Polymer Nanoparticles and Its Application in Detecting Alkaline Phosphatase Activity. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28041892.

Abstract
Fluorescent silver coordination polymer nanoparticles (Ag-TPA CPNs) were synthesized using a combination of terephthalic acid (TPA) and silver nitrate via an ultrarapid microwave-assisted strategy within 15 min. The Ag-TPA CPNs displayed a high fluorescent quantum yield (QY = 20.19%) and large Stokes shift (~200 nm), with two emission peaks at 490 nm and 520 nm under an excitation wavelength of 320 nm. A fluorescent "turn-off" method using fluorescent Ag-TPA CPNs was applied to detect the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity on the basis of the ALP-catalyzed hydrolysis of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AA2P) to ascorbic acid (AA), and the AA product triggered the reduction of Ag+ ions into silver nanoparticles. The fluorescent lifetime of Ag-TPA CPNs decreased from 3.93 ms to 3.80 ms after the addition of ALP, which suggests that this fluorescent "turn-off" detection of ALP activity is a dynamic quenching process. The fluorescent intensity had a linear relationship with the concentration of ALP in the range of 0.2-12 mU/mL (r = 0.991) and with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.07 mU/mL. It showed high selectivity in ALP detection towards metal ions and amino acids, as well as other enzymes such as horseradish peroxidase, glucose oxidase, tyrosinase, trypsin, lysozyme, and superoxides. When it was applied for the fluorescent "turn-off" detection of ALP activity in serum samples, mean recovery levels ranging from 99.5% to 101.2% were obtained, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) lower than 4% accuracy. Therefore, it is an efficient and accurate tool for analyzing ALP levels in biosamples.

Abstract
Photon upconversion (UC) based on triplet-triplet annihilation is a very promising phenomenon with potential application in several areas, though, due to the intrinsic mechanism, the achievement of diffusion-limited solid materials with air-stable UC is still a challenge. Herein, we report UC coordination polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) combining sensitizer and emitter molecules especially designed with alkyl spacers that promote the amorphous character. Beyond the characteristic constraints of crystalline MOFs, amorphous CPNs facilitate high dye density and flexible ratio tunability. To show the universality of the approach, two types of UC-CPNs are reported, exhibiting highly photostable UC in two different visible spectral regions. Given their nanoscale, narrow size distribution, and good chemical/colloidal stability in water, the CPNs were also successfully printed as anticounterfeiting patterns and used to make highly transparent and photostable films for luminescent solar concentrators, both showing air-stable UC.

Abstract
Cerium, as a lanthanide, has attracted considerable interest because of its excellent catalytic activity. Here, we propose a novel cerium-based coordination polymer nanoparticles named DPA-Ce-GMP, which have excellent oxidase-mimicking properties. Furthermore, a colorimetric probe that can act as an inhibitor to suppress the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was developed for detecting organophosphorus pesticides (OPs). DPA-Ce-GMP catalyzes colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to produce a blue color, and AChE catalyzes acetylthiocholine to produce thiocholine (TCh), which can weaken DPA-Ce-GMP-catalyzed TMB. After the addition of OPs, the enzymatic activity of AChE was inhibited to produce less amount of TCh, resulting in more DPA-Ce-GMP-catalyst oxidized TMB to show an increasing blue color. Dichlorvos, as the samples, with the limit of 0.024 μg/L. Overall, we believe that the colorimetric probe can be used for the rapid, low-cost, and large-scale field detection of OPs in food samples.

Abstract
Non-invasive phototherapy includes photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), and has garnered special interest in anti-tumor therapy. However, traditional photosensitizers or photothermal agents are faced with major challenges, including easy recognition by immune system, rapid clearance from blood circulation, and low accumulation in target sites. Combining the characteristics of natural cell membrane with the characteristics of photosensitizer or photothermal agent is an important technology to achieve the ideal therapeutic effect of cancer. Red cell membrane (RBMs) coated can disguise phototherapy agents as endogenous substances, thus constructing a new nano bionic therapeutic platform, resisting blood clearance and prolonging circulation time. At present, a variety of phototherapy agents based on Nano-RBMs have been isolated or designed. In this review, firstly, the basic principles of Nano-RBMs and phototherapy are expounded respectively. Then, the latest progress of Nano-RBMs for PDT, PTT and PDT/PTT applications in recent five years has been introduced respectively. Finally, the problems and challenges of Nano-RBMs in the field of phototherapy are put forward.

Abstract
We report on the green preparation of one-dimensional metal coordination polymers by sonochemical approach. The spacer ligand 4,4'-bipyridine was ultrasonicated with chloride or acetate zinc salts to obtain [Zn(4,4'-bipy)Cl2]∞ and [Zn(4,4'-bipy)2(OAc)2]∞, respectively. Benign solvents such as ethanol and water were selected as reaction media, and the synthesis took place in a few minutes-a very short time compared to conventional methods where some days' synthesis is required. X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis (thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry), and CHN techniques investigated the influence of using different reaction solvents on the chemical, structural, and thermal properties of the final products. The 1D [Zn(4,4'-bipy)Cl2]∞ and [Zn(4,4'-bipy)2(OAc)2]∞ polymers, in agreement with the structures reported in the literature, were obtained in the form of nanocrystals with an average crystal size around 100 nm. As a proof of concept, a set of Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae), and three yeast strains (Candida albicans, Candida krusei, Candida glabrata) were tested to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the coordination polymers, following the Kirby-Bauer procedure and microplate dilution method. Thus, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and minimal biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC) were evaluated. Except for Candida krusei, the compounds showed an appreciable antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity against these strains grown in the liquid medium.

Abstract
Light-mediated nanotherapeutics have recently emerged as promising strategies to precisely control the activation of therapeutic reagents and imaging probe both in vitro and in vivo, largely ascribed to their unique properties, including minimally invasive capabilities and high spatiotemporal resolution. Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs), a new family of hybrid materials consisting of metal attachment sites and bridging ligands, have been explored as a new platform for enhanced cancer diagnosis and therapy due to their tunable size, modifiable surface, good biocompatibility, high agent loading and, most significantly, their ability to be preferentially deposited in tumors through enhanced permeability and retention (EPR). Especially the light-driven NMOF-based therapeutic platform, which not only allow for increased laser penetration depth and enhanced targeting, but also enable imaging-guided or combined treatments. This review provides up-to-date developments of NMOF-based therapeutic platforms for cancer treatment with emphasis on light-triggered therapeutic strategies and introduces their advances in cancer diagnosis and therapy in recent years.

Abstract
Nanodrugs have attracted increasing interest in drug delivery and disease treatment. However, the cumbersome preparation process and the poor biocompatibility of nanodrugs obstruct their clinical translation. In this study, we utilized a self-assembly strategy to develop a low-toxicity, long-lasting nanodrug for the effective treatment and real-time monitoring of bladder tumors. The accurate self-assembly of compatible raw materials allowed for an encapsulation rate of 43.7% for insoluble erdafitinib. Interestingly, robust therapeutic effects and reduced side effects could be realized simultaneously using this nanodrug, enabling broader scenarios for the clinical application of erdafitinib. Furthermore, the nanodrug exhibited a significantly prolonged in vivo half-life (14.4 h) and increased bioavailability (8.0 μg/mL·h), which were 8.3 times and 5.0 times higher than those of its nonformulated counterpart. Also, it is worth mentioning that the introduction of a fluorescent protein module into the nanodrug brought up a novel possibility for real-time feedback on the therapeutic response. In conclusion, this research revealed a versatile technique for developing low-toxicity, long-acting, and multifunctional nanoformulations, paving the way for multidimensional therapy of malignant tumors.

Abstract
Solvothermal reactions between the polyaromatic group containing carboxylic acid pro-ligands 5-{(pyren-1-ylmethyl)amino}isophthalic acid (H2L1) and 5-{(anthracen-9-ylmethyl)amino}isophthalic acid (H2L2) with Zn(NO3)2·6H2O led to the formation of the new 1D coordination polymer [Zn(L1)(NMF)]n (1) and four other coordination polymers, [Zn(L1)(DMF)]n (2), [Zn(L1)(4,4′-Bipy)]n (3), [Zn(L2)(DMF)(H2O)2]n·n(H2O) (4) and [Zn2(L2)2(DMF)(CH3OH)]n (5), which were previously reported by our group. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that the CP 1 has a one-dimensional (1D) double-chain-type structure similar to that of CP 2. For CP 3, the assembly of the Zn(II) ion with a deprotonated L12− ligand and 4,4′-bipyridine produces a 3D network. CP 4 and 5 exhibit 1D linear and 2D layered-type structures. The ultrasound-assisted tandem reactions promoted by CPs have not yet been well studied. Thus, in the present work, we have investigated the catalytic activities of the newly synthesized CP 1, as well as of the other CPs 2–5, towards the tandem deacetalization–Knoevenagel condensation reactions of various acetals under ultrasonic irradiation. They proved to be highly efficient, with special emphasis on catalyst 1, which completely converted the substrate (benzaldehyde dimethyl acetal) into the desired product (2-benzylidenemalononitrile) after 2 h. The stability of the catalysts, namely regarding the action of ultrasonic radiation, was demonstrated by their reuse, where only a slight loss of activity was observed after four cycles. Heterogeneity was also demonstrated, and no leaching was detected over the various cycles.

Abstract
Metal ions are of widespread interest owing to their brilliant biomedical functions. However, a simple and universal nanoplatform designed for assembling a range of functional metal ions has not been explored. In this study, a concept of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-mediated transport of metal ions is proposed. 31 types of PEG-metal hybrid nanoparticles (P-MNPs) are successfully synthesized through anionic ring-opening polymerization (ROP), "thiol-ene" click reaction, and subsequent incorporation with multiple metal ions. Compared with other methods, the facile method proposed in this study can provide a feasible approach to design MNPs (mostly <200 nm) containing different metal ions and thus to explore their potential for cancer theranostics. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, four types P-MNPs, i.e., PEG-metal hybrid copper nanoparticles (PEG-Cu NPs), ruthenium nanoparticles (PEG-Ru NPs), and manganese nanoparticles (PEG-Mn NPs) or gadolinium nanoparticles (PEG-Gd NPs), are proven to be tailored for chemodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, and magnetic resonance imaging of tumors, respectively. Overall, this study provides several metal ions-based nanomaterials with versatile functions for broad applications in cancer theranostics. Furthermore, it offers a promising tool that can be utilized for processing other metal-based nanoparticles and exploring their potential in the biomedical field.

Abstract
The administration of cytotoxic drugs in classical chemotherapy is frequently limited by water solubility, low plasmatic stability, and a myriad of secondary effects associated with their diffusion to healthy tissue. In this sense, novel pharmaceutical forms able to deliver selectively these drugs to the malign cells, and imposing a space-time precise control of their discharge, are needed. In the last two decades, silica nanoparticles have been proposed as safe vehicles for antitumor molecules due to their stability in physiological medium, high surface area and easy functionalization, and good biocompatibility. In this review, we focus on silica-based nanomedicines provided with specific mechanisms for intracellular drug release. According to silica nature (amorphous, mesostructured, and hybrids) nanocarriers responding to a variety of stimuli endogenously (e.g., pH, redox potential, and enzyme activity) or exogenously (e.g., magnetic field, light, temperature, and ultrasound) are proposed. Furthermore, the incorporation of targeting molecules (e.g., monoclonal antibodies) that interact with specific cell membrane receptors allows a selective delivery to cancer cells to be carried out. Eventually, we present some remarks on the most important formulations in the pipeline for clinical approval, and we discuss the most difficult tasks to tackle in the near future, in order to extend the use of these nanomedicines to real patients.

Abstract
The unique role of the zinc (II) cation prompted us to cut a cross-section of the large and complex topic of the stimuli-responsive coordination polymers (CPs). Due to its flexible coordination environment and geometries, easiness of coordination-decoordination equilibria, "optically innocent" ability to "clip" the ligands in emissive architectures, non-toxicity and sustainability, the zinc (II) cation is a good candidate for building supramolecular smart tools. The review summarizes the recent achievements of zinc-based CPs as stimuli-responsive materials able to provide a chromic response. An overview of the past five years has been organised, encompassing 1, 2 and 3D responsive zinc-based CPs; specifically zinc-based metallorganic frameworks and zinc-based nanosized polymeric probes. The most relevant examples were collected following a consequential and progressive approach, referring to the structure-responsiveness relationship, the sensing mechanisms, the analytes and/or parameters detected. Finally, applications of highly bioengineered Zn-CPs for advanced imaging technique have been discussed.

Abstract
Hybrid inorganic-organic core-shell nanoparticles (CSNPs) are an emerging paradigm of nanodrug carriers in the targeted photodynamic therapy (TPDT) of cancer. Typically, metallic cores and organic polymer shells are used due to their submicron sizes and high surface to volume ratio of the metallic nanoparticles (NPs), combined with enhances solubility, stability, and absorption sites of the organic polymer shell. As such, the high loading capacity of therapeutic agents such as cancer specific ligands and photosensitizer (PS) agents is achieved with desired colloidal stability, drug circulation, and subcellular localization of the PS agents at the cancer site. This review highlights the synthesis methods, characterization techniques, and applications of hybrid inorganic-organic CSNPs as loading platforms of therapeutic agents for use in TPDT. In addition, cell death pathways and the mechanisms of action that hybrid inorganic-organic core-shell nanodrug systems follow in TPDT are also reviewed. Nanodrug systems with cancer specific properties are able to localize within the solid tumor through the enhanced permeability effect (EPR) and bind with affinity to receptors on the cancer cell surfaces, thus improving the efficacy of short-lived cytotoxic singlet oxygen. This ability by nanodrug systems together with their mechanism of action during cell death forms the core basis of this review and will be discussed with an overview of successful strategies that have been reported in the literature.

Abstract
Coordination polymers have been extensively studied in recent years. Some of these materials can exhibit several properties such as permanent porosity, high surface area, thermostability and light emission, as well as open sites for chemical functionalization. Concerning the fact that this kind of compounds are usually solids, the size and morphology of the particles are important parameters when an application is desired. Inside this context, there is a subclass of coordination polymers, named infinite coordination polymers (ICPs), which auto-organize as micro- or nanoparticles with low crystallinity. Specifically, the particles exhibiting spherical shapes and reduced sizes can be better dispersed, enter cells much easier than bulk crystals and be converted to inorganic materials by topotactic transformation. Luminescent ICPs, in particular, can find applications in several areas, such as sensing probes, light-emitting devices and bioimaging. In this review, we present the state-of-the-art of ICP-based spherical particles, including the growth mechanisms, some applications for luminescent ICPs and the challenges to overcome in future commercial usage of these materials.

Abstract
Polysaccharide (PS) based nanoparticles (NP) are of great interest for biomedical applications. A key challenge in this regard is the functionalization of these nanomaterials. The aim of the present work was the development of reactive PS-NP that can be coupled with an amino group containing compounds under mild aqueous conditions. A series of cellulose phenyl carbonates (CPC) and xylan phenyl carbonates (XPC) with variable degrees of substitution (DS) was obtained by homogeneous synthesis. The preparation of PS-NP by self-assembling of these hydrophobic derivatives was studied comprehensively. While CPC mostly formed macroscopic aggregates, XPC formed well-defined spherical NP with diameters around 100 to 200 nm that showed a pronounced long-term stability in water against both particle aggregation as well as cleavage of phenyl carbonate moieties. Using an amino group functionalized dye it was demonstrated that the novel XPC-NP are reactive towards amines. A simple coupling procedure was established that enables direct functionalization of the reactive NP in an aqueous dispersion. Finally, it was demonstrated that dye functionalized XPC-NP are non-cytotoxic and can be employed in advanced biomedical applications.

Abstract
The subjects of this work were the enhancement and determination of the stability and other properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in an aqueous solution, gold nanoparticle immobilization, and further surface grafting on polyethylene naphthalate (PEN). Gold nanoparticles in PEG with a subsequent water solution addition were prepared using cathode sputtering; for the subsequent surface activation, two different solutions were used: (i) sodium citrate dihydrate (TCD) and (ii) N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NALC). The aim of this work was to study the effect of the concentration of these solutions on AuNPs stability, and further, the effect of the concentration of gold nanoparticles and their morphology, and to describe the aging process of solutions, namely, the optical properties of samples over 28 days. Stabilized AuNPs were prepared in an N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NALC) system and subsequently immobilized with NALC. The surface chemistry modification of AuNPs was confirmed using HRTEM/EDS. Gold nanoparticles were successfully immobilized with NALC. Grafting of the modified PEN from a solution of colloidal gold stabilized in the PEG–H2O–NALC system led to the polymer surface functionalization.
