General description
Gold nanoparticles have unique properties like biocompatibility, non-cytotoxicity, good optical and electronic properties. They are widely in targeted drug delivery, bioassays and polymer-based sensors. Gold nanorods exhibits a transverse plasmon resonance in the wavelength range of around 520 nm and longitudinal plasmon resonance in the wavelength range of greater than 600 nm which makes it very attractive for optical imaging in tissue since light in this wavelength range can penetrate deep into the tissue due to low absorption and scattering.
Application
Used in cancer nano-therapy.
Features and Benefits
Strong light absorption, localized surface plasmon resonance, quantum effect, biocompatibility, low toxicity, consistency, easy synthesis, ability to be readily functionalized with targeting ligands.

We have synthesized and characterized gold nanoparticles (spheres and rods) with optical extinction bands within the "optical imaging window." The intense plasmon resonant driven absorption and scattering peaks of these nanoparticles make them suitable as contrast agents for optical imaging

The interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with gold colloids and surfaces was studied using zeta-potential and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) measurements, respectively, to determine the surface charge and coverage. The combination of these two measurements suggests that BSA binding
