Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are quasi-dynamic materials which are commercially used for various biomedical, electrochemical and energy based applications. AuNPs are highly stable with properties like high surface to volume ratio, high conductivity, and low toxicity.

AuNPs can be potentially used in:

• biomedical applications as a drug releasing agents
• cancer radiotherapy due to their excellent surface chemistry and biocompatibility
• electrochemical bio-sensing systems

Ideal for adsorption of thiolated ligands such as oligonucleotides and polyethylene glycols. Also, due to the increased stability, these gold nanoparticles are ideal for use in physical and optical applications. Note: This product is not ideal for protein adsorption. For gold nanoparticles suitable for adsorption of proteins and other ligands for conjugate development, please see our gold nanoparticles stabilized in PBS.

This material is highly monodisperse (<12% variability in size and shape), and provides significantly improved surface reactivity. Applications include Surface Enhanced Raman Lables, Sensing/Detection, Biological Targeting, Plasmonics and Electronics.
