Available at a concentration of 5 mg/mL or as a dried powder. Help me choose a concentration.

EconiX gold nanoparticles are available with PVP surfaces.

Help me choose a concentration

(Note: These concentrations are not available for all products.)

0.02 mg/mL: 0.002 % by weight, these formulations are ideal for applications which require low concentrations and do not require significant dilution.

1 mg/mL: 0.1% by weight, these formulations are ideal for applications that require high concentrations such as nanotoxicology, environmental studies, diagnostics, and applications that require significant dilution.

5 mg/mL: 0.5% by weight, these formulations are ideal for applications that require extremely high concentrations such as nanotoxicology and environmental studies, as well as materials applications that require the nanomaterials to be incorporated into a custom solution or solvent. 

Dried: Select formulations are available as a dried, easily redispersible powder.  These formulations are ideal for applications which require the formulation to be resuspended in a custom solution/solvent or that require custom concentrations.  Dried materials can be resuspended by mixing with solvent, followed by bath and/or probe sonication.

Help me choose a capping agent

(Note: These capping agents are not available for all products.)

Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP): PVP is a polymer that binds strongly to the nanoparticle surface and provides a high level of stability. 

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA): PVA is a polymer that binds strongly to the nanoparticle surface and provides a high level of stability. 

PEG: Mercapto PEG (mPEG) is a biocompatible stabilizing ligand that strongly associates to the surface of the particle via its thiol (mercapto) end.  PEGylated particles typically have low non-specific binding to cells and other biological entities.

Silica: Standard silica shells increase nanoparticle stability in a wide range of solvents and buffers, and also to changes in pH and temperature.  

Amine-terminated Silica: Amine-terminated silica shells increase nanoparticle stability and provide a versatile  surface for amine-reactive conjugation chemsitry.
