Linking structure and optical properties of plasmonic nanoparticles on tunable spherical surfaces
Francesco Brasili, Angela Capocefalo, Giovanni Del Monte +8
The complexation of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) and thermoresponsive microgels is widely exploited for applications, but a microscopic description of the mechanisms governing the…
The double-faced electrostatic behavior of PNIPAm microgels
Simona Sennato, Edouard Chauveau, Stefano Casciardi +2
PNIPAm microgels synthesized via free radical polymerization (FRP) are often considered as neutral colloids in aqueous media, although it is well known, since the pioneering work o…
Influence of drug/lipid interaction on the entrapment efficiency of isoniazid in liposomes for antitubercular therapy: a multi-faced investigation
Francesca Sciolla, Domenico Truzzolillo, Edouard Chauveau +7
Hypothesis. Isoniazid is one of the primary drugs used in tuberculosis treatment. Isoniazid encapsulation in liposomal vesicles can improve drug therapeutic index and minimize toxi…
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…
Biophysical characterization of membrane phase transition profiles for the discrimination of Outer Membrane Vesicles (OMVs) from Escherichia coli grown at different temperatures
Angelo Sarra, Antonella Celluzzi, Stefania Paola Bruno +7
Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) are physical techniques widely employed to characterize the morpholog…
Overcharging and reentrant condensation of thermoresponsive ionic microgels
Domenico Truzzolillo, Simona Sennato, Stefano Sarti +3
We investigated the complexation of thermoresponsive anionic poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNiPAM) microgels and cationic -polylysine (-PLL) chains. By combining electrophores…
