Abstract:Abstract:Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been obtained using musts (freshly prepared grape juices where solid peels and seeds have been removed) as the reducing and capping agent. Transmission Electron Microscope images show that the formed AuNPs are spherical and their size increases with the amount of must used. The size of the AuNPs increases with the Total Polyphenol Index (TPI) of the variety of grape. The kinetics of the reaction monitored using UV-Vis shows that the reaction rates are related to the che… Show more
“…And finally the paper of Rodríguez et al, entitled "Novel Method for the Identification of the Variety of Grape Using Their Capability to Form Gold Nanoparticles" [7], showed the possibilities of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) obtained using musts (freshly prepared grape juices where solid peels and seeds have been removed) as a reducing and capping agent. Transmission electron microscope images showed that the formed AuNPs were spherical and their size increased with the amount of must used.…”

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.
