General description

Gold nanorods (25 nm diameter, FITC and NHS functionalized, powder) are gold based nanoparticles that are elongated along a particular direction. They can be synthesized by seeded growth method. They are widely used in optical imaging due to their facile synthesis, optical properties and compact size.

Application

Owing to size and shape dependent quantum effects, the gold nanoparticles exhibit unique surface plasmon resonance absorption, scattering, fluorescence, and photothermal properties which render them suitable for applications in catalysis, chemical sensing, biosensing , cellular and bioimaging, drug and gene delivery, and photothermal therapy. The fluorescent labeling of gold nanoparticles have been shown to cause emission enhancement in fluorophores. This makes the fluorescence tagged gold nanoparticles a dual mode nanoprobe for drug delivery and bioimaging applications.
