Heteroaggregation of gold nanoparticles with model colloids and the influence of environmental aqueous chemistry

Creator:

Pike, Daniel J.

Abstract:

Nanoparticles are becoming increasingly important in numerous technological fields but evidence shows that they can be toxic to many organisms. To predict their fate and transport in the environment, nanoparticle attachment to naturally occurring colloids must be examined. This study investigated citrate-capped gold nanoparticle (Cit-AuNP) heteroaggregation with two model colloids...

Probing Structure, Selectivity, and Orientation of Biomolecules to Cell Membranes by Sum Frequency Generation

Creator:

Golbek, Thaddeus W.

Abstract:

Cell membranes act as barriers against unwanted movement of ions and biomolecules and are complex surfaces littered with protein channels, ion channels, cholesterol, and a myriad of different proteins. While this surface is extremely well studied, there is still much we do not know. The work in this dissertation demonstrates...
