Gold Nanorods Kit (Axial Diameter - 25 nm, wavelength 550-700 nm)
The physical and chemical properties of Gold Nanorods are outlined in the following. Gold nanorods are shipped in 18MÙ DI water with < 0.1% ascorbic acid and < 0.1% CTAB surfactant capping agent.
Figure 1. Representative TEMS.
Storage of Gold Nanorods
Store at 4°C. Do not freeze. CTAB, may cause a cloudy appearance at low temperatures. Before use, warm to room temperature to resuspend excess CTAB. Particularly for the larger nanorods, make sure to homogenize bottles after long storage periods to resuspend any sedimentation.
Typical Characteristics (Specifications) of Gold Nanorods
The typical characteristics of gold nanorods are outlined in the following table.
