Applications

Gold nanopowder is widely utilized in research focused on:

  • Biomedical Applications: Gold nanoparticles are used in drug delivery systems, enhancing the targeted delivery of medications to specific cells, which improves treatment efficacy and reduces side effects.
  • Diagnostic Imaging: In medical imaging, gold nanopowder enhances contrast in techniques like computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), allowing for clearer images and better diagnosis.
  • Electronics: The unique conductive properties of gold nanoparticles make them ideal for use in flexible electronics, improving the performance of sensors and conductive inks.
  • Environmental Remediation: Gold nanopowder is effective in removing pollutants from water, as it can bind to heavy metals and organic contaminants, facilitating their removal and making water safer for consumption.
  • Catalysis: In chemical reactions, gold nanoparticles serve as catalysts, speeding up reactions and increasing efficiency, particularly in the synthesis of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
