Abstract

Nucleation of protein crystals by gold nanoparticles was observed. Lysozyme and ferritin were used as model proteins. The effect was established with uncoated gold nanoparticles and with gold nanoparticles coated by 16‐mercaptodecanoic acid. (Β© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Our current approach is to synthesize gold nanoparticles utilizing Serrapeptase that serves as both a reducing and stabilizing agent. The investigations further reveal that certain amino acid groups like lysine are involved in reduction and stabilization of these particles. The particles are charact

## Abstract PVDF nanocomposites are prepared through solution mixing of Au‐NPs or Au‐NSs with PVDF. The novel optical properties of Au‐NPs and ‐NSs are retained as confirmed from UV‐Vis spectra. Analysis of resulting nanocomposites by FT‐IR, XRD, and DSC shows an obvious polymorphism change from __
