Striking Nano Gold

FEBRUARY 6, 2008

A team of researchers led by Roger Kornberg have acquired new information that will accelerate the development of practical applications for monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles, an area of intense research activity. The group, working at Stanford University, the General Medicine and Cancer Institutes Collaborative Access Team facility at the Advanced Proton Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory, the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, and the Advanced Light Source, succeeded in synthesizing and visualizing a pure crystal of gold nanoparticles coated with the thiol p-MBA (p-mercaptobenzoic acid). (Thiols, also called mercaptans, are organic compounds that have a SH sulfhydryl functional group.) The study was featured on the cover of Science magazine.
