Colloidal stability of citrate and mercaptoacetic acid capped gold nanoparticles upon lyophilization : effect of capping ligand attachment and type of cryoprotectants

For various applications of gold nanotechnology, long-term nanoparticle stability in solution is a major challenge. Lyophilization (freeze-drying) is a widely used process to convert labile protein and various colloidal systems into powder for improved long-term stability. However, the lyophilizatio...
