Molecular origin of the two-step mechanism of gellan aggregation
Letizia Tavagnacco, Ester Chiessi, Leonardo Severini +10
Among hydrocolloids, gellan is one of the most used anionic polysaccharides, because of its capability of forming mechanically stable gels at relatively low concentrations. Despite…
Assembling patchy plasmonic nanoparticles with aggregation-dependent antibacterial activity
Francesco Brasili, Angela Capocefalo, Damiano Palmieri +5
We realise an antibacterial nanomaterial based on the self-limited assembly of patchy plasmonic colloids, obtained by adsorption of lysozyme to gold nanoparticles. The possibility…
DNA-functionalized gold nanoparticle assemblies for Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering
D. Caprara, F. Ripanti, A. Capocefalo +5
The programmable assembly of DNA strands is a promising tool for building tailored bottom-up nanostructures. Here, we present a plasmonic nanosystem obtained by the base-pairing me…
