Mixed charged zwitterionic self-assembled monolayers as a facile way to stabilize large gold nanoparticles
Here we report a facile way of stabilizing large gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by mixed charged zwitterionic self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The citrate-capped AuNPs with diameters ranging from 16 nm to even ∼100 nm are well stabilized via a simple place exchange reaction with a 1:1 molar ratio mixtu...

| Zusammenfassung: | Here we report a facile way of stabilizing large gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) by mixed charged zwitterionic self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The citrate-capped AuNPs with diameters ranging from 16 nm to even ∼100 nm are well stabilized via a simple place exchange reaction with a 1:1 molar ratio mixture of negatively charged sodium 10-mercaptodecanesulfonic acid (HS-C10-S) and positively charged (10-mercaptodecyl)-trimethyl-ammonium bromide (HS-C10-N4). The 16 nm AuNPs protected by mixed charged zwitterionic SAMs not only show much better stability than the single negatively or positively charged AuNPs, but also exhibit exciting stability as well as those modified by monohydroxy (1-mercaptoundec-11-yl) tetraethylene glycol (HS-C11-EG4). Importantly, 16 nm AuNPs protected by mixed SAMs exhibit good stability in cell culture medium with 10% FBS and strong protein resistance, especially with excellent resistance against plasma adsorption. Moreover, the mixed charged zwitterionic SAMs are also able to well-stabilize larger AuNPs with a diameter of 50 nm, and to help remarkably improve their stability in saline solution compared with HS-C11-EG4 protected ones. When it comes to AuNPs with a diameter of 100 nm, the mixed charged zwitterionic SAM protected nanoparticles retain a smaller hydrodynamic diameter and even better long-term stability than those modified by mercaptopolyethylene glycol (M(w) = 2000, HS-PEG2000). The above results demonstrated that the mixed charged zwitterionic SAMs are able to have a similar effect on stabilizing the large gold nanoparticles just like the single-component zwitterionic SAMs. Concerning its ease of preparation, versatility, and excellent properties, the strategy based on the mixed charged zwitterionic SAM protection might provide a promising method to surface tailoring of nanoparticles for biomedical application |
