Possibilities of atomic spectroscopy in the analysis of gold- and silver-based nanoparticles in synthesized sols and biological samples

Аннотация

Possibilities of the determination of Au, Ag, and Si in dispersions of nanoparticles and biological samples by inductively coupled plasma atomic absorption and atomic emission spectrometry are demonstrated. Conditions of complete sample mineralization and the quantitative transfer of gold and silver to solution are found. The parameters of analyte determination in flame, graphite furnace, and plasma are optimized. The completeness of the atomization of gold, silver, and silicon in plasma on the introduction of nanoparticles as colloidal solutions is estimated. The conducted research allowed the estimation of the degree of gold and silver reduction at different stages of synthesis of composite nanoparticles with the core/shell structure. Quantitative information on the dynamics of accumulation and the redistribution of composite nanoparticles with gold or silver shells in organs and tissues of mices after the intravenous administration of colloidal solutions of nanoparticles.
