Growth morphology and special diffraction characteristics of multifaceted gold nanoparticles.

This paper deals with morphology of synthesized nano gold particles through seed based growth. Various types of morphologies have been observed. They primarily relate to decahedral and truncated tetrahedral shapes.

Negative regulation of fibrin polymerization and clot formation by nanoparticles of silver.

Thrombolytic therapy in acute stroke has reduced ischemia; however, it is also associated with increased incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage and expanding stroke. Platelets and fibrin are the major components of thrombi. Since fibrin is available in large concentration at lesion sites and in all types of thrombi, it is an obvious target for majority of antithrombotic therapies.
