Application of Digital Colorimeter for Preliminary Characterization of Gold Nanoparticle Swarms Produced byTermitomyces heimiiUsing a novel Bioinspired Microfluidics Assay
Abstract:In our laboratory work extending over several years we have successfully studied the biogeochemical role of termite mounds and their occupants the termites and the exosymbiont fungus-Termitomyces. Fungi appear to be promising for large scale production of nanoparticles (NPs) as these are simpler to grow both in laboratory and at industrial scale. This paper reports a novel microfluidics based assay system to detect Gold bioreduction capacity of different tissues in tissue based and cell free environment. Usi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
