Two modes of capillary electrophoresis (CE), capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and capillary transient isotachophoresis (ctITP), were compared for the detection and separation of spherical gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and gold nanorods (AuNRs). The development of ctITP using two different leading ions is described. Overall, when compared to traditional capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), ctITP resulted in improved peak shape and peak efficiency. Specifically, the number of theoretical plates for AuNR samples increased by a factor of 2-2.5 depending on the choice of leading ion. Further, using ctITP two AuNRs differing by aspect ratio were baseline resolved, whereas the same AuNRs could not be separated using CZE or other techniques like single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (spICP-MS) and asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4). The results of this study demonstrate that ctITP is an efficient on-line technique for the improved detection and separation of gold nanomaterials in CE.

Atomically precise gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) exhibit unique physical and optical properties, making them highly promising for targeted cancer therapy. Their small size enhances cellular uptake, facilitates rapid distribution to tumor tissues, and minimizes accumulation in non-target organs compared to larger gold nanoparticles. AuNCs, particularly Au, show significant potential in phototherapy, including photothermal (PTT), photodynamic (PDT), and radiation therapies.

Monolayers of transition-metal dichalcogenides, such as MoS, have attracted significant attention for their exceptional electronic and optical properties, positioning them as ideal candidates for advanced optoelectronic applications. Despite their strong excitonic effects, the atomic-scale thickness of these materials limits their light absorption efficiency, necessitating innovative strategies to enhance light-matter interactions. Plasmonic nanostructures offer a promising solution to overcome those challenges by amplifying the electromagnetic field and also introducing other mechanisms, such as hot electron injection.

A localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) sensor based on tapered optical fiber (TOF) using hollow gold nanoparticles (HAuNPs) for measuring the refractive index (RI) is presented. This optical fiber sensor is a good candidate for a label-free RI biosensor. In practical biosensors, bioreceptors are immobilized on nanoparticles (NPs) that only absorb specific biomolecules.
