Shape and size controlled synthesis of gold particles has been studied by using wet-chemical method. When ${AuCl_4}^-$ in aqueous $HAuCl_4$ precursor was reduced using $Na_2SO_3$ as a reducing agent, mixtures of spherical, triangular and hexagonal particles were prepared in a few minutes. It was found that the shape selective oxidative etching by ${AuCl_4}^-\;+\;Cl^-$ anions and crystal growth took place simultaneously. As the ${AuCl_4}^-$ and $Cl^-$ concentration increased, yields of large triangular and hexagonal plate type particles increased, while the spherical particles decreased in most cases. Possible etching and growth mechanisms are discussed.

This experiment was conducted for the purpose of developing such a sensor that can quickly sense dopamine concentration by using chitosan-gold nanoshell. Chitosan nano particles were reacted with gold nano particles so as to synthesize chitosan-gold nanoshell, and the size of the synthesized product was about 150 nm. When dopamine was reacted with chitosan-gold nanoshell, the size of it was not definitely changed, but dopamine was well reacted with chitosan-gold nanoshell, and it generated SERS (surface-enhanced Raman scattering), which led to a clear difference in the intensity of Raman scattering within the range of dopamine concentration (1 mM-10 mM). When Raman scattering was intensity marked on chitosan-gold nanoshell by employing a calibration curve according to dopamine concentration, a straight line whose margin of error was narrow was earned.

Metallothionein (MT) is induced in the regenerating rat liver. We have investigated expression of MT gene by RT PCR as well as specific localization of MT by immunocytochemistry in regenerating rat liver after partial hepatectomy (PH). MT mRNA level started to increase from 1 h and reached the peak at 8 h after PH. The level decreased gradually by 24 h, and became similar to that of control group. In the immunocytochemical study, in all groups treated with primary antibody, immunogold particles indicating the presence of MT were evenly distributed throughout both cytoplasm and nucleus of the rat hepatocytes. Within the nucleus, the gold particles appeared to be intensely localized in the areas of euchromatin and nucleolus. Within the cytoplasm, gold particles did not seem to adhere to mitochondria or Iysosomes, but were freely distributed. However, rough endoplasmic reticulum was the obvious compartment on which the gold particles were localized. Time course of MT immunoreactivity revealed that distribution of gold particles in hepatocytes increased gradually by 24 h, and decreased at 48 h after PH. Briefly, PH resulted in the sharpest increase in the expression of MT mRNA at 8 h and in the immunoreactivity of MT at 24 h, respectively. It is suggested that the increase of MT mRNA expression, the intensity of immunoreactivity and the specific localization of MT may be associated with the compensatory cell proliferation followed by PH.

We enhanced the sensitivity of surface plasmon resonance biosensor by the conversion of the real-time direct binding immunoassay into the sandwich immunoassay, in which colloidal gold particles coated with anti-mouse IgG was used. By the immobilization of anti-mouse IgG onto the carboxymethyl dextran surface of thin gold film, the direct binding of analyte(mouse IgG) onto the sensor chip, and the injection of colloidal gold particles coated with anti-mouse IgG, about 100 times of sensitivity enhancement was obtained. This result suggests that nanoparticles, which has a high refractive index, homogeneous ultrafine structure and capability of size control, would be applicable for the detection of very small quantity of biomaterial.

Nanoscale gold particles have been intensively researched due to their potential applications in catalysis, electronics, plasmonics, and biological assays. In our study, we fabricated gold nanoparticles (NPs) that were synthesized in an aqueous environment via the reduction of $HAuCl_4$ by ascorbic acid (AC) with a sodium citrate (SC) surfactant. Highly monodispersed gold particles with sizes ranging from 123 to 184 nm were prepared in high-yield by a surfactant concentration. The structural and optical properties of the synthesized gold nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-vis spectroscopy. The prepared nanoparticles exhibited efficient surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) properties that were dependent on their on size.

Bonding of resin to cast alloy has traditionally been provided by mechanical retention. But, chemical bonding methods such as silicoating, tin plating, heat treatment, application of 4-META adhesives, have been developed to overcome the problems of the mechanical bonding methods. Silicoating has been used availaby in fixed prosthodontics, but is also reported to be used in removable prosthodontics. The aim of this study is to measure the tensile bond strength between resin and metal, and compare the effect of the type of metal and the grain size of the aluminum oxide on the bond strength, after metal surface roughening, coating of the opaque resin, and curing of heat-curing resin were performed. The test groups were divided into 4 groups according to the cast alloys and the aluminum oxide particles used. Group 1 : Type 4 gold alloy(DM66) blasted with $$50{\mu}m\;Al_{2}O_3$$ Group 2 : Type 4 gold alloy(DM66) blasted with $$250{\mu}m\;Al_{2}O_3$$, Group 3 : Co-Cr alloy(Nobilium) blasted with $$50{\mu}m\;Al_{2}O_3$$ Group 4 : Co-Cr alloy(Nobilium) blasted with $$250{\mu}m\;Al_{2}O_3$$ * 10 test specimens were made on each group. The specimens were thermocycled, and Instron Universal testing machine was used to measure the tensile bond strength of the finished specimens. The results were as follows : 1. Bond strengths showed that the group of gold alloy blasted with $250{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide particle had higher bond strength, and the group of gold alloy blasted with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide particles had lower bond strength than any of the other groups. 2. Gold alloy had significantly higher bond strength when blasted with $250{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide particles than $50{\mu}m$, but. Co-Cr alloy showed no statistically significant difference between the two particle sizes. 3. When blasted with $50{mu}m$ aluminum oxide particles, Co-Cr alloy showed significantly higher bond strength than gold alloy. And, when blasted with $250{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide particles, gold alloy had significantly higher bond strength than Co-Cr alloy. 4. On the examination of the fractured sites, only the group of Co-Cr alloy blasted with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide particles showed a part of residual opaque resin, but all the samples of the other groups fractured between the resin and the metal.

연두금파리 종령유충의 복강내에 이물질로서 protein-A gold 용액(20 nm 크기) colloidal gold 용액(15 nm 크기), 그리고 이들의 혼합액을 주입하여 혈구가 이들을 처리하는 양상을 전자현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였다. Gold 입자에 대한 혈구의 세포성 면역작용 방식은 식세포작용이었고 이러한 식세포 작용은 연두금파리에서 확인한 prohemocyte, plasmatocyte. granulocyte type I, II, III, 그리고 oneocvtoid 등의 6가지 혈구 중 type 11 granulocyte에 의해서 수행되었다. Gold 입자는 주로 판상의 원형질 돌기를 통하여 혈구 속으로 들어갔으며 coated-pit로 보이는 구조에 의해서도 받아들이는 것으로 나타났다. 식세포 작용은 gold 용액 주입후 10분 이내에 빠른 속도로 일어났으며 시간이 경과함에 따라 gold 입자를 함유한 phagosome은 리소소음과 융합하여 phagolysosome을 형성하면서 세포질내에 축적되어 있었다. Gold 용액을 주입한 후 type II granulocyte에서는 세포질 돌기와 전자 밀도가 높은 과립, 그리고 세포 소기관이 소실되는 등의 변화가 일어났다. protein A-gold 및 colloidal gold 용액에 대한 기본적인 식세포 과정은 별다른 차이점이 없었으나 gold 입자 섭취 초기 과정과 양, 그리고 multivesicular body의 모습등에서는 차이점을 보여 주었다.

Shape control of gold nanocrystal is still one of the most important challenges remaining to achieve geometry dependent properties. Thus far, several strategies have been developed to control the shape of nanoparticles, such as adding capping agents and diverse additives or adjusting the temperature and pH. Here, we used an already established seed-mediated method that allowed us to focus on controlling the growth stage. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and ascorbic acid (AA) were used as the ligand and the reducing agent, respectively, without using any additional additives during the growth stage. We investigated how the relative ratio of CTAB and AA concentrations could be a major determinant of nanoparticle shape over a wide concentration range of CTAB and AA. As a result, a morphology diagram was constructed experimentally that covered the growth conditions of rods, cuboctahedra, cubes, and rhombic dodecahedra. The trends in the morphology diagram emphasize the importance of the interplay between CTAB and AA. Furthermore, high-index faceted gold nanocrystal was obtained by two step seeded growth. Already synthesized cubic particles developed into hexoctahedral nanocrystal consisting of 48 identical {321} facets, which indicates that the growth of gold nanocrystal is affected by initial morphology of seed particles. The hexoctahedral gold nanoparticles can be used in catalysis and optical applications which exploiting their unique geometry. Our research can provide useful guidelines for designing various facetted geometries.

금을 공침법으로 고분산시켜 제조한 촉매와 함침법으로 제조한 금 및 코발트 촉매상에서의 부타디엔과 펜타디엔의 수소화 활성 및 생성물 분포를 상압 유통식 반응기에서 조사하여, 고분산 금 입자의 수소화 반응특성 및 그의 역할에 대하여 검토하였다. 고분산된 담지 금 촉매의 수소화 활성은 함침법으로 제조한 촉매에 비하여 크게 증가하였고, 100% 전환율에서도 부분 수소화만이 진행되어 부텐의 선택율은 거의 100%이었다. 그러나 코발트 담지 촉매에서는 부탄까지 쉽게 수소화되었다. 이와 같은 금 촉매의 특성은 담체와의 계면에 존재하는 금이 수소화 적절한 친화력을 가지는 독특한 성질 때문으로 생각되었다. 고분산 담지 금 촉매의 부타디엔 및 펜타디엔에 대한 생성물 분포에서 각각 1-부텐이 60~67%, 그리고 2-펜텐이 약 62%로 거의 일정하게 얻어졌는데, 이는 공역디엔의 통계학적 수소부가 개념으로 설명할 수 있었다.
