Colloidal stability of nanoparticles in biological media is an important consideration when trying to ensure reliable data interpretation of in vitroand in vivosystems. We have developed a detailed colloidal stability library of newly synthesized gold, silver and gold-core silver-shell plasmonic nanoparticles, stabilized with aspartame, glucosamine and sucralose, in various biologically relevant buffers and bacterial and mammalian cell culture media. The stabilizer selection reflects the preference for molecules that are non-toxic, inexpensive, readily available, water soluble and easy-to-replace if that is the end-user preference. An on-line resource provides detailed stability information on each of the 81 systems examined. To illustrate how to utilize this stability library, we conducted bacterial toxicity and biocompatibility experiments through the use of one specific set of nanomaterials in the presence and absence of plasmonic irradiation. |
