Massimo Perucca, PhD - Diad Group: Biomimetic synthesis and self-assembly in one step

Recently, the group of researchers composed by Yi Wang, Li Qiang Chen, Yuan Fang Li, Xi Juan Zhao, Li Peng and Cheng Zhi Huang at Southwest University, China, have reported a simple, controllable and environmentally friendly strategy for biomimetic synthesis and self-assembly of gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) in one step. The method uses a kind of polysaccharide derivate as both a reducing agent and a stabilizer. The as-prepared one-dimensional Au-NP assemblies have attractive features, including plasmon resonant coupling and excellent biocompatibility, making them great precursors of future optical nanodevices and promising candidates for biological applications.

Massimo Perucca, PhD - Diad Group: Nano-Biosensors through self assembly process

Biosensors use selective biological recognition reactions to target a specific analyte. The Nano-Bio Technology Group at Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT, China) is working on the development of nano-(bio)sensors for environmental applications targeted to health and safety such as detection of biowarfare and chemical warfare agents for homeland security; measurement of exposure to diesel and gasoline exhausts; detection of compounds such as herbicides, pesticides, toxins, viruses and bacteria in water and food and toxic industrial chemicals in the environment.
